Your salary is more than an average but you still lack money? There is always something that you need to buy and, as a result, you find yourself with empty wallets at the end of every month? I had a similar situation so I decided to check how much we will be able to save if we follow the most popular money-saving recommendations online. Actually, I didn’t really have to do much to see more cash in my account each month. Wanna know what results I got? Looking ahead, I would like to point out that little things actually take far more money than it might seem at first glance.

SUMMARY:
- At the time, I needed to save enough money for a girl’s trip I wanted to take with my friends to Hawaii. My goal was to save $200 a month.
- To start off with, I discovered the art of cooking! Let me tell you, it wasn’t easy. But if you break down all the ingredients in your take-out order, you’ll see that if you were to prepare the same meal yourself, you’d spend a quarter of the price!
- But ditching the take-out and cooking at home isn’t enough – you also need to plan your meals so that you’re not wasting money and food.
- Part of meal planning is going to the store with an exact list of what you need.
- My shopping list alongside my meal planner kept me focused on buying only the ingredients I needed for my food and a few of my snacks.
- I got myself a water filter that attaches to the faucet, and I fill up a reusable stainless steel bottle throughout the day. It is a small investment if you get a good one, but you end up saving money in the long run, and the filters last for months.
- Instead of buying unique clothes that resemble some fashion editorial, I switched to a minimalistic classic style. I bought simple pieces with minimal prints and color.
- I was spending about $50 a month to get my nails done professionally. But then I was like, “I think I can achieve the same look just by DIY-ing it with a $5 bottle of nail polish that’ll last for months!”
- The average woman spends $20 a month on skincare, and I’d say I fit that statistic (or even surpass it!). So, I started making my own skincare products using natural ingredients.
- And last but not least, ditch your gym membership if you have one. Just do your workouts at home – there are all kinds of apps and videos online that make it more than easy to keep a fitness routine right in the comfort of your own home.
