Save Money by Creating a Budget Plan
Do you go shop at the supermarket, pump gas into your vehicle every week, or pay your bills without knowing how much money you intend to spend? You will save money by creating a budget for every category of spending that comes from your household.
Example budget categories include:
- Grocery budget - For food, multivitamins, pet care
- Toiletry budget - For toilet paper, paper towels, cotton swabs, etc.
- Fuel budget - Control how many miles you drive per week to come up with a feasible budget
- Budget for discretionary spending - Do you really need those cell phone plan extras, a home phone when all your family members have cell phones, or those premium cable TV channels?
