5 More Money Saving Tips

     Hey Readers! I am so glad to finally be back and writing! The last 2 weeks I was at some military training and I just didn't get all of my blogs written that I had wanted to, but now I am going to be back to writing a post every day, Monday- Friday! At least until I get a job or start college back up! I am back now and ready to share some more great things with you!
   
I have done a couple other money saving posts like these two:
                     Money Saving Tips #1
                     Money Saving Tips #2

But here are just a few more tips that I have found really helpful!




1. Spices should be bought at Dollar Tree.
   Unless you have an attachment to a certain brand, there is nothing different about the spices other than they may come in slightly smaller sizes. The best part is, they are only a dollar! Not only spices can be bought, but a lot of dorm room, kitchen and party essentials can be bought here to save a large amount of money in the long run!

2. Back to school time is a great time to stock up on home craft materials for the home.
    Everything is on sale and it is a great time to get glue, crayons, and other basic materials for some fun crafts at home.

3. Check before you buy.
   If you find a home decoration that you really want to buy, think about how hard it would be to do it on your own. I be there is a tutorial out there that would help you come up with an idea of how to do it on your own.

4. Share books and movies
    Create a group within your circle of friends to swap books, movies, video games, and board games. This way  you don't have to go spend money on buying it or renting it. Just make sure you keep a log of where your stuff went, to ensure that you get it back! If you are going to go spend money on a game, try renting it before you buy it. This prevents not liking it or beating it within the first day of having it and having nothing left to do.

5. Set up alerts for bills
  Never will you have to pay a late fee again because you forgot to pay your bill. This is a great way to set up for bill paying. Set the alerts to go off on your pay day so you don't spend your money before you pay your bills.
