Hi, how it's going?
I’m going to be honest with you I spend majority of my money on clothes and I have come to realise I have impulse spending habit.

When I didn’t have a job I would be out and buying new clothes for no reason. I feel it would of been to make me feel better (it's what my mum said). It’s a habit I need to break.
It wasn't until after the boxing day sales I wrote down the everything I bought and the total was $$$.
That was my wake up call and I decided I'm going to save more money this year. I learnt from myself, friends and family on ways they save money.
Here are some ways/tips I use to save:

Here are some ways/tips I use to save:
- Collect 50c coins.
- Make a budget using Microsoft excel.
- Write down what you spend in a week.
- Write a list of your needs and wants. Example needs will be groceries, petrol, rent, etc. Wants are clothes, tickets, make up etc.
- Buy clothes during sales.
- Limited the amount of takeaway coffees and meals you buy.
- Get a second job- babysitting, café work etc.
- Pre plan and estimate how much you will spend on your night out.
- Save every second paycheck you receive.
- Find shops that sell your skincare and other beauty products at a lower price.
I think it's also important to not feel bad if you go through a week of spending money. Life happens when it's a birthday or special occasion it's obvious you will spend money.
What are your ways or tips in saving money?

One of the ways I save is when I want to make a large impulse buy, like a new recliner, I incrementally save the money to pay cash. Often within a week or two I realize that object isn't important and I move on. Or I save to pay cash and never put anything on a credit card.
ReplyDeleteMore tips the better! I try to pay things with cash just in case anything goes wrong with the credit card! Thank you!
