10 Ways to Save Money Now
Easy and painless ways to save money every day.
- Trade Starbucks for, well, more bucks. If you’ve already spent $6 on a beverage alone and it’s not even lunchtime, you’ve got a bad breakfast habit. If expensive coffee drinks are draining your funds yet you can’t give up the caffeine, brew your own or give the old deli coffee a try. At less than $1, you’ll be able to save up to $25 a week and a whopping $1,300 a year!
"Reigning in mindless spending -- and wearing what you already have -- can save you hundreds, if not thousands, a year."
- Don’t get taken to the cleaners. If you’ve ever been to the dry cleaners, you’ve no doubt scratched your head at the diabolic pricing structures. How can it really cost that much? Spare yourself the bitterness and reevaluate your dry-cleaning needs. Try to cut your bill in half by laundering some items at home.
- Brown-bag it. If you eat lunch out five times a week and spend about $5 a clip, you’re looking at about $1,300 a year in sandwiches, soups, and other fast foods. But bringing your lunch doesn’t have to suck. If you stock up on readymade items like soups, burritos, and frozen meals, you can save up to $2 to $3 a day. The only thing you need to do is remember to bring it with you!
- Dine in rather than out. Craving that Indian spot you love to hit on Friday nights? Try making that chicken tikka masala at home. By digging up your favorite recipes online and then heading to the store for all of the ingredients, you’ll save money and have leftovers for the next day. Plus, you’ll get to congratulate yourself on your amazing samosas and pakoras!
- Ditch the brand names. We’re not just talking about Coach and Polo; we’re talking about Panadol, Hellmann’s, and Charmin too. Whenever possible, choose the generic store brand over your favorite label. Most of the time, the formulation is exactly the same; you’re just paying for the packaging. A dollar or two here and there adds up!
- Give the horse a rest. If you’ve been called a “shoe horse” or a “clothes horse,” this message is for you. If you’re known for buying clothes, makeup, pillows, or home decor in excess, it’s time to cut back. Reigning in mindless spending -- and wearing what you already have -- can save you hundreds, if not thousands, a year.
- Jump on the wagon. Alcohol can be a diet-wrecker and a budget-buster. When you’re drunk, you think nothing of buying a round of Grey Goose shots for your nearest and dearest friends (and the awesome dudes you met 10 minutes ago). Later, you go home and wash the booze down with eight slices of pizza and a side of wings. When you control your drinking, you’ll have more money in your pocket and less flab around your waist.
- Carpool. A year or two ago, we would’ve laughed this idea off. We’re all down with saving money, but carpooling? Doesn’t sound very easy! Fast-forward to 2008 with gas prices climbing higher and higher; suddenly, saving money is no laughing matter. By splitting the drive and cost of gas with just one other person, you can reduce commuting costs by half -- add another person and save more!
- Watch at home. With the average price of a movie ticket at almost $7 per person (and even more in some areas), a night out at the movies is no longer a cheap date. Add two kids to the mix and it’s bordering on “special occasion” status. Why invest your hard-earned money in what could be a Hollywood flop? Instead, consider blockbuster weekly movies. If you hate the movie, you’ve only spent a dollar or two and you can take it right back to where it came from.
- Indulge yourself at home. If manis and pedis have become weekly must-haves, it’s time to cut back. Extend the life of your mani/pedis by repolishing rather than running back to the spa for every chip or smudge. By investing in the tools of the beauty trade (remover, polish, and a manicure set), you can save a good chunk of change a month. Now that’s beautiful.
- Put the money in a jar every time you have saved on something, do this for a month and then open a super fund and keep on putting the pennies in every time you save. Over the years on a 5% interest... Wow, it does become a lot of money !!!

10 years younger with whiter teeth
On average, we smile at least 50 times a day. So of course you want to have beautiful, white teeth and a movie-star smile. Everyone remembers a bright, radiant smile—it leaves a lasting first impression. But there’s so much more to a pretty smile
When you smile, your teeth and gums tell a story that’s much broader than just dental hygiene. They speak volumes about your wellbeing. You see, your mouth is the window to the rest of your body. So if your mouth is not healthy, your body is not healthy. That’s why it’s so important to practice good daily oral care.
Are you brushing your teeth properly?
Has your dentist ever told you that you’re not brushing your teeth properly? There’s actually a special brushing method that’s endorsed by the American Dental Association called the Bass technique. It’s widely recognized for effectively cleaning all surfaces of your teeth and removing plaque from the gum line.
What you do is position your toothbrush at a 45-degree angle and use short, quick strokes to brush each tooth. It’s recommended that you brush your teeth for up to five minutes, twice a day, using this technique. But let’s be honest, who spends that much time brushing every day? In fact, studies show that most adults only brush their teeth anywhere from 29 seconds to 1 minute. And the average time brushing is 40 seconds.
A very good way to clean and whitening your teeth is to gargle (hold in mouth) with 3% peroxide for 10 minutes while you take a relaxing bath, and it also cleans off all the germs from your tongue and tonsils. Brush your teeth and rinse after you are done. A great way to keep healthy and beautiful!

Don't mix finances and love !

After having gone through a messy separation you might find that you are head over heel in debt ?
You are wondering how it happened ?
A few rules every girl should know before she does anything and especially before she falls in love !!!
After you moved in together, got married, and You are the one with the credit... don't ever let him talk you into having a subsidiary card to any of the credit cards you have. let me make explain it in a simple way .
DON'T EVER SIGN AS THE GUARANTOR!!
After the separation I found myself buying my ex partner new girlfriend dinners and gifts.
His son a new computer .. the list is long and so are the expenses.
The worst part is there is nothing you can do about it.
You are doomed if you and you are doomed if you don't.
If you cancel the credit card the debt is for sure yours.. if you let it be and he pays the minimum..then there are things you can do.
Please help us help all our girlfriends out there.
Write to us what you can do and where to find help.
I found that legal aid gave good support.
How to define "being tired"......
I am so tired, we say to easily, I am sure you know what it means ?
It means when you, fall asleep at 8 pm because you can't stay awake any more.
It means you have no interest in your e-mails, and you don't check them.
It means you don't finish your dinner or glass of wine, it finishes you!
It means you forget your darling has not called you or kissed you.
It means you wake up at 2am ,4am and 5 am , thinking " do I have to get up yet"
It means you are mentally exhausted and can't remember what you did 5 minutes ago
It means you just want to sleep.......nothing else matters.. just let me sleep
It means you wake up tired and wish it was evening so you could go to bed!!!!!!!
This is what we have to do to recover from love ?
Is it ?
Make sure you know what you are doing when you are awake or you have to do it when you are " so tired," then it is to late.
Maybe this doesn't make sense .
I don't care, because I am to tired .
Good night !!
