I decided to research some things that we can do to help us financially. We are a large family that is getting by on only about $28,000/year. I am very frugal but there is always room for improvement.
I am an avid gardener and I am going to research some things that I can do in the winter and will report on that soon.
First I started looking for ways to cut bills.
I reviewed each of our bills and looked for things that we did not need or we were being over-charged on. I called our cell phone carrier and by changing and extending our plan I was able to cut $10/month off our bill! Next I looked at our Dish Network bill and found out we were being charged $5/month for something I had not authorized. A short 30 minute phone call later, not only did I cut $5/month off our bill, I got a $15 credit!
Not too bad for an hours work! I can now save $15 every month!
