1. Take small steps Trying to cut all of your expenses at once can prove discouraging. Instead, consider an incremental budgeting plan where you cut costs one at a time. It is also a good idea to track your spending for a month to see where the money is going before deciding what to cut. 2. Eliminate unnecessary routine purchases Eliminating unnecessary routine purchases is a great way to start cutting expenses. While it may not be the largest savings area, it is important and easy. Is it necessary to stop at the coffee shop on your way to work when you can make coffee at home that will cost just pennies? How much do you spend each week on sodas and snacks purchased from the office vending machine that typically cost $1.00 or more each? Consider purchasing a 12 pack of soda at the grocery store, instead. Cutting back might be difficult at first, but when you add up all the money you’re spending on unnecessary purchases, you’ll realize how important it is when it comes to reducing expenses. 3. Review your monthly services Your monthly cell phone, cable, and Internet bills can add up to hundreds of dollars per month, especially if you have unlimited mobile data plans or watch premium TV channels. Try to bundle plans with your provider to receive a discount. If you are not able to bundle all items together, consider switching plans to save money. If you’re looking for a more extreme measure, you can always get rid of cable and watch TV shows for free using websites like Hulu and Crackle. This may help, jwick
