Five Painless Ways We Saved $100 Last Year:
1. Doing laundry at my father-in-law's house, instead of paying $16 a month to do it at our apartment complex.
2. Buying produce from a local farmer's market chain rather than paying an overpriced amount of the major grocery store.
3. Looking for deals on big ticket items on slickdeals.net before making a big purchase.
4. We also found a good way to have cheap date nights. Check out Happy Hour at local restaurant chains. A lot of places have their appetizer menu for half-price and the portions are definitely enough for a full meal. The best part is that is cuts our bill in half.
5. We saved a bunch of money on car insurance by switching to Geico. Just kidding. We don't even have Geico. But we do save money on insurance by not having brand spanking-new cars which equals higher insurance and just put them in the shop when they need to be fixed. Like now. It's less expensive than throwing down $25,000+ for a new car and being debt for new wheels.
