It says no budget instead of a small budget for a few reasons. I personally hate google-ing for money saving ideas only to realize I don't have the money to invest on saving money! Things like energy saving appliances, switching for gas to electric, a wood stove, or even a pressure caner to start canning food.
This post is strictly free ways to save some money. Little things that you can change in your life without coughing up money to do so. Now keep in mind these are ways to lightly save money. Your savings account will not be in the hundreds by the weeks end.
1-cleaning the back of your refrigerator saves money on your energy bill.
2- At night unplug your cable box, router, and wifi.
3-keep unused appliances unplugged as well. No point in keeping your coffee pot on if you aren't using it.
4- Don't forget to unplug your chargers too!!!!
5-Recycle!!!Recycle!! Recycle. Pinterest is a wonderful thing of our age. Old soup cans can be recycled into candle holders, Wine glasses into planters for herbs, and spices.
6- SEEDS! Save your seeds from peppers, watermelon, or even pumpkins when you buy them. Dry them out and save them for planting a garden.
7-Cut up old, out grown, or stained cloths for cleaning rags.
8-Coupons! I can get free shaving creams, shampoos, and conditioners from giant eagle JUST from my weekly ads in the mail. Save them, cut them, and wait till it goes on sale. I see a dollar off shampoo coupon and wait till its on sale for a dollar!
9-Facebook Flee market sites. People are always trying to get rid of things. I have so many play toys outside for the children just by picking up things peoples kids out grew!
10-Pay It Forward. If you find something for free and get rid of it. Give it away. When we help others save some money do others help us as well.
These are helpful little tips not quick money saving ideas. You won't see a dramatic change, but at little change over a long period of time adds up quicker then you think.
