Call your utility companies, i.e gas, water, electric; and ask if they offer budget plans. Essentially they will take what you paid last year and divide the total by 12. Based on that amount, you can pay that each month. I didn't know this until my dad suggested it to me! I even called the phone company and cable company and asked them about a reduction in my bill and was granted one just by applying specials that are going on now to my current plans! So far I will be saving over $600 each month!!!It pays to ask quest

Save on entertainment costs by utilizing the library. They have not only books, but music, movies and books on tape/CD. Also, for clothing needs, utilize your loval goodwill. Nowadays, people are getting rid of good "junk". Try it, I guarantee you'll like it.

Are you paying for features on your land phone when you don't even talk on it, and the only reason you have the phone is for internet access? Cancel ALL the features including the message unit, because you use your cell phone anyway! You may save up to $576, a year! Invest that money into a money market or better.
