Food Expenses
Stop going out to eat. This will be a huge sacrifice for most, but you have to stop going out to eat;it's too expensive. You need to bring your lunch to work and, if you have a Starbuck's addiction, stop buying $2 cups of coffee. Many people can save $50 a month just by brewing their own coffee, another $100 by bringing their lunch to work, and another $200 by not going out to eat for dinner.
Cutting back on food expenses has made a huge difference in our monthly spending. We don't buy coffee or snacks at convenience stores, and the most we eat out is once a week and that's generally at a fast food place. Another big plus to eating most of our meals at home has been that we feel better and have dropped some weight.
Great! For Muslim, we can perform fasting twice or more in a week. This may also help to reduce the food expenses because we only take foods at night. If can continuously fasting every month, just calculate how much we can spend. Good huh?
Its really hard to cut on food items for the sake to save money. This is my personal opinion as one can cut on electricity, gas, cell bills, etc. but cutting down in food habits might not be like by all.
thoes are rally good points you`ve set up there
Jerlene but once you have an addiction or you`re used to going out to eat....and buying the coffee that you like it` will be very hard to stop doing that.Especially if you love that 2$ coffee
Priorities 100ky :) If you are looking to save money for more important things- you can break the $2 coffee habit- or at least make it a once a week treat rather than a daily occurrence!
I read someone even fast? that is both unhealthy actually in fitness sense it will only crave you to eat more, And gain weight fast. For the sake of saving money? it is not also right.. cutting basic necessities is not the answer that would only mean you are already broke to the ground. Cutting those unnecessary ones like eating in fast foods and drinking expensive coffee could help. But finding a source of income is much better, i mean not work but with something like business to create a cash flow.
Fasting? Yes. Thats anothey good method to save budget. If not, you can only eat once per day and drink a lots of water. Its enough. I already do that for month because want to save budget to buy flight ticket. I manage to do that. But after i rest at home for 2 week, i eat a lots. Hoho. Its bad habit. But i need to do that because want to save my budget..:D
To tell you the truth i never voted for fasting tosave money. That was never the right idea. Instead use your mind and creativity to make money, money is just i deas. Remember when you first made one? isn't it that it just started in a idea.? My business started in ideas and i earn form them in that way i dont need to fast and still have enough for everything.
Maybe surfville. Not many people like to fasting. But i love to do that because of many thing. I also can slim my body. Hoho, seems like i already become fat when i moved to new home. I eat a lots. So, in order to save budget and others purpose, fasting is another good method.
Yes. If you earn from business, i don't think food expanse really your big problem.
