5 Quick Ways To Save Money

A lot of people say they don't know how to save money, or don't know where to even start. I consider myself quite good at saving money and knowing how to save money so I thought a post like this would be ideal. It will be a very quick post with just 10 ways that you can save yourself money, without doing a lot! If you want more information on anything, feel free to tweet/e-mail/leave a comment. :)

1. Join Quidco or Topcashback. I use Quidco more, but they both give you cashback when you shop. It might not seem like a lot but I saved over £200 last year. And I got a discount on my car insurance. Before you shop, always check these sites first. I might do full reviews on these websites soon.

2. Turn off lights, turn down the heating by one degree, and unplug any unused appliances. Make sure if you're not using it, it's off. I always turn lights off, even if I'm going out the room for one minute.

3. Organise your cupboards. There's normally a lot of things in the back of cupboards that get forgotten about, whether it's tins or conditioner bottles. Raid it all, organise it all, and focus on using up things in your cupboards and not buying anything.

4. Prepare lunch and dinner for the week. Prepare what you can beforehand and freeze it, and make your lunches the night before. This will stop you buying takeaways.

5. Make sure you're paying the lowest for everything. Check if you can get cheaper phone tariffs, car insurance etc. and it could end up saving you so much. Don't stay with the same company out of laziness, get the best deal you can.
