Its the final set of money saving tips I have to begin our 2019 Uber Frugal Year. I’m sure I will forget a few, but I can always update later.
Beauty Products
*Homemade products I make: Deodorant, Cleansing Shampoo, Homemade Conditioner and even face powder.
* I use less shampoo (Regular) and I even water mine down a bit. Our hair does not require so much shampoo.
* Using up all of my makeup before buying more. Sometimes I see eye shadow or blush I like and buy it. I am considering decreasing the amount I wear.
*Use Organic Extra Virgin Coconut Oil as a conditioning treatment.
Car Savings
* Keep your tires inflated. Helps with gas mileage.
* Keep your car clean. Its just a great thing to do. LOL
*Keep oil changed and fluids full: Check for online coupons for the place you like to go. If you give them your email they will email you coupons to use.
Clothing
*No buying clothes until it is warm again. We have a minimal wardrobe and plenty until Spring.
*Keep a simple wardrobe to save money.
* Exception: Buy undergarments if needed of course!
* I buy 2nd hand snow boots if I can find them. They are for outside use only.
Homeschool/Books
* We are unschooling now so now more text books are needed.
*I will not buy anything unless it is a necessity. This would be pencils, paper, markers, crayons, etc…
* Books, magazines, videos are only from the library for FREE!! I also use my Kindle to download free books and Hoopla from my local library for free books, audiobooks, movies and TV shows.
EXTRAS
*Get a Brita filter instead of using water bottles.
*Keep Snacks with you when you are out. This will keep your kids from wanting to eat out and maybe you too.
*Find free community events to go to with your family.
*Make gifts instead of buying them. I love making treats for people.
* Save that change!!
*Have game nights or movie nights at home. Its a lot of fun.
* Buy Zoo and Museum passes if you know you will go a lot. We have a zoo pass and love it!!
BE CONTENT WITH WHAT YOU HAVE!!
Thank you for stopping by. Share your money saving tips. I would love to read them. Lets prepare for an Uber Frugal 2019!
I love the last sentence… Being content with what you have. I think this is something many people struggle with. I know I do.
