10 Simple Things Anyone Can Do to Save Over $200 a Month Starting Right Now

As a life insurance sales person I often have families tell me thanks but I just can't afford it. I decided to see what I could do to save $200 a month from my budget. I then took it step further and found 10 things anyone could do to save money each and every month.

I eat out at least 4 meals a week while I am running from appointment to appointment. I love Diet cola and drink it with every meal even breakfast. By getting water instead of Diet Cola I can save about $8 a week or $32 a month. I also drink a 12 pack of diet cola at home every day. By cutting back to a 6 pack of Diet cola Daily I can save an additional $8 a week or $32 Monthly. Just by cutting back on Diet Soda I have saved $64 a month.

I love cheeseburgers and 3 or 4 times a month I go to a fast food restaurant and get a double cheeseburger combo for $5. By cutting back to a single combo for $3 I can save an additional $7 a month. The nice thing about this of course is that it is much healthier then a Double Cheeseburger.

I often go out to eat with my Girlfriend. I have an Entertainment card that is available in most major cities. This card can be used for Buy 1 get 1 free meals at 100's of local area restaurants. By using an Entertainment card for 1 Lunch and 1 Dinner each month I can save an additional $20 a Month. So far by changing a few of my eating habits I have not only saved $91 a month but I have improved my health at the same time.

I have a Gym membership that I pay $20 a month for. I don't use the gym except for maybe the treadmill once or twice a month when the weather is bad. By walking at the Mall instead of the Gym I can save $20 a Month.

I recently got an all in one Messaging solution for about $25 a month. This solution comes bundled with a send and receive fax capability. I was able to eliminate my home fax machine and save myself an additional $15 a month.

I had a land line phone that I was paying over $50 a Month for. I was able to switch to Vonage an internet VOIP provider and save $25 a month. Every Month My cell phone would go over by an average of just over 200 minutes by changing my cell phone plan to one that allowed more minutes I was able to save $50 a month.

Looking at the saving so far I have saved $91 by changing my eating habits, $90 a month by changing my Phone usage and an additional $20 by walking at the Mall instead of the Treadmills at the Gym. So far my total savings is $201 a month

I also saved $25 a month by getting rid of 2 Premium Cable TV services and an additional $10 a Month by asking my Cable provider to bundle my Cable TV and Internet.

Hopefully this will give you some ideas on how you can save money on your monthly budget. Here are a few more

1 - Change the Thermostat.

By raising the thermostat 1 or 2 Degrees in the summer and lowering it 1 or 2 degrees in the winter you may notice a big difference in your Energy Bill

2 - Shop the Cell Phone Competition.

When your contract is up shop the competition. I have a friend who has 200 more minutes and extra features like free calls from her Favorite 10 for less money.

3 - Get the Family plan

Many people can save money by combining all the family members into a big family plan for their sell phone usage.

4 - Is cable your only choice?

Quite frequently it is possible to get Satellite TV cheaper then cable.

5 - Give up that expensive coffee

Many people drink 1 or 2 cups of that $4 coffee daily. By giving up 2 cups a week you can save over $30 a Month

6 - Find the Early bird.

Many Restaurants have Early bird dinners that can save $20 or more per family.

7 - Take Out

I know of 1 Family that saves $10 a week on the cost of Soda by taking out from their favorite sandwich shop as opposed to eating in.

8 - Rent a Video

The cost of the average Movie for a Family of 4 with Popcorn and Soda is well over $50 nowadays. You can rent a Video, Make Microwave Popcorn and order in a Pizza and still have $20 left over.

9 - Try a Free Museum or Zoo

In St Louis the Choices for fun free entertainment are endless. We have the Zoo, Sculpture Park, History Museum and the Muny just to name a few. Check out your Sunday paper for activities you can do for free.

10 - Take a Walk

Most big cities have areas where you have to pay for parking. Often free parking is available a block or 2 away, By getting there a few minutes early you can find free parking nearby and get the health benefits of a nice walk.

Save money - sell the house - 10 Budget to help you sell things indoors

If you're ready to have your house on the market, it's time to look at the inside of your home with a critical eye. The good news is that there are many very simple, inexpensive projects you can do that will greatly improve a buyer's opinion of your home.

Several popular TV shows now to improve the internal appearance of the houses to increase the market value or appeal. Properties often learn about this wonderful program presented by very visual processingsmall changes. We can use this attitude - more for less - the look of your home and improve.

Always remember our motto - more for less. We want to focus on small, economic changes that impact the visual appearance of your home. Wiring the house for high-speed internet (things not to be seen or used by trade visitors only in situational circumstances), or spend a lot of money for major improvements like the addition of granite, is surprisingly less incomethan you think.

1. Look Down

This is an important factor for many buyers - what kind of flooring you have and especially what is the condition. I literally saw buyers away from home because the carpet was dirty too. It is possible that the rejection of a negative phenomenon or even preventing even the floor at their best. If you have carpeting, rent a steam cleaner for the weekend and use it. They are rather inexpensive and can be reallyCarpet especially older younger. If you have laminate or wood, use a floor cleaner and when it dries a non-slip floor wax. Make sure that before any projections or open houses - do not want to smell the house, like cleaning the island of your grocery store. Speaking of ...

2. Destroy odors

This is difficult to assess. Often we are so used to the smell of our homes, we can not be more objective. Take the help of aFriend (your REALTOR is a good choice), you are sure to give you an honest assessment. Here are some common sources of house smells and ways to combat them:

Pets: Keep the cat / bird cage pet / clean areas spotless. If you have a room that often pets, might be a good candidate for some potpourri or air fresheners non-offensive. Febreeze is a great scent masks - if you have pets (especially dogs), the slope on the couch, chairs or lay on blankets or rugs that giveFurniture spray a fast advance in your open house.

food odors, some types of cooking can really add intense fragrance to your home. Pay attention to your kitchen very clean - get rid of fat that may have collected on the stove, hood, floors or furniture (check up to). Get an oven and clean the inside of the oven. Also, make sure that all kitchen waste is disposed of immediately. Finally, if you know your visitors are coming failed, kitchenanything with strong odors - taken as a treat to work hard to get your home ready for sale.

musty: It is often fraught with problems of water should first check is a stale smell a great street for a buyer. Certain locations tend to pick up this smell - Keller, lower bedroom, rec. Chamber of walk-in basements, attics or conservative. You can try to reduce a regular basis, with a de-humidifier (if you have one) in a problem position for a couple of weeksShow on everything. Carpets often collect this odor - make sure you clean steam (see above). Also, this might be a good candidate for a deodorant not offensive. If you suspect that there is a problem of water to be controlled by a professional.

Just a couple of tips, air fresheners: less is more. Make sure not to overwhelm your customer with deodorant. It often raises the suspicion that something is covered, even if there is no real reason for theirsuspicious. the heavy smell like pine, rose or citrus heavy a real turn-off - Do not use scent - lavender, chamomile, citrus light. There is also a good option that I discuss in my last tip of the guide.

3. Fix and Touch on the walls

A few minutes with some filler, some light sanding and a few paint touch-up pad, the hole in the wall off if you stuck in the motion furniture repair, expansion plans, it will be another nail or wallDefects, even if you have no ability to repair. It 's just to look decent, not perfect. Stick the tape off of drywall, with a touch of fill and patch - it will be pretty ugly and it's easy to notice. Oh, and ....

4. I have to paint all the rooms?

It depends. If you have the time to do it myself, or if things seem really bad painting can be a great gain. In addition, if you do you can be pretty cheap. Try to hire a painterYour local shop for the holidays - you'll be amazed how easy it is to be surprised. Strong colors are often a problem with many buyers. You can love orange pumpkin in the living room, but are they? Neutral colors are best - remember this house for sale - you can use the new colors, paint what you want, but to maximize the use of home as many buyers as possible. Trust me, stick with neutral here. If there are sections of the house that you might really need a new coat, useJudgement. Remember - more for less.

5. Remove personal note

To identify customers with your home - to see themselves living there. One thing that is diverted from this point of view a photo of your family every time you turn. So that would be sad to see all the pictures are down, but it must happen. Just think of it as part of the packaging process. It 's also a good time for all the homework, pictures and drawings that childrenmade from the refrigerator and walls.

6. De-clutter the way for a sale

Keep the house clean and tidy for visitors. This is one of the hardest things for your home on the market - the feeling that your house must always be the best. Even a little 'can go a long way here. Make sure the toys are picked up and put away, home office areas are kept clean and tidy, neatly stacked in storage, clothes away, put organized workshops, the kitchen is inOrder and all those hundreds of other things you do when a company is approaching. A well-kept home evokes feelings of peace and order in the buyers - both good things.

7. Open the home page

There are some simple things you can do, and some difficult things - the good news is that all of them do not cost much. One of the biggest changes that happens on these home makeover TV shows occurs when new furniture, to create the impression of more space. Take acritical look at any room in your house - if you have time, move the furniture a bit '- if the space of one position over another. If you have a digital camera, take pictures and compare them side by side. Another option is to remove all the furniture. This is a great idea, because not only is at home to open up more, but they give you a jump on the pack. I would suggest the furniture completely out of the house - maybe rent a storage space, outside, or ifthis is not possible to save all removed parts neatly on one side of the garage. Some buyers do not even look in the garage and when they do, better to have a room full of stuff, like the whole house. The last thing is to let all the curtains pulled back - that makes a room look "light" and the additional natural light is always a plus.

8. Clean, clean, clean

This is a tactic of selling very useful, so you really can not get away with not doing. Keep themJust vacuumed carpets, counters wiped down, cleaned the kitchen are down (the kitchen is the most important to many buyers) and bathroom sparkling clean (bathrooms are often the second most important area for many buyers), and everything dusted. Some other tips - clean the bugs off the lights - I am a big "Yuck!" Enter all the woodwork, once on some furniture polish and clean the window sills and windows. Be sure to keep all the dishes washed and out of the bar -dirty dishes are a big turn off. Also, make sure that all the closets are organized and clean - there will be buyers an idea of ​​space - be prepared!

9. Windows and doors

Surprisingly, this factor is quite high in a buyer's market trouble. A sticky door or aloud, every buyer of a second stop and go "Hmmm." The good news is that this is a simple solution - a can of WD-40 takes care of himself and creaks around those sticky doors, buy a piece of paraffin(Found in the canning of your grocery store) and rub a bit 'in the area of ​​the port that looks worn. For windows, make sure that open easily - Start by cleaning the door - often avoid a lot of dust and dirt that related to the window clean the opening. If this trick does not work, try some WD-40 or a little 'wax here.

10. Prepare your home for viewing

Our goal is to make the house so bright and "family" as possible. There are a couple ofGimmicks, you can use to prove that indeed this environment.

- Bake something - cookies are a good option - Custom House is a good - not just burn. We're going for the flavors here. Smell of freshly baked cookies as home buyers expensive perfume.

- Cookies (works well with the above), or in summer, cold mineral water. Buyers like this personal touch and keep their opinions of the unconscious at home.

-Open all curtains and dim the lights - you want your home to airy, bright and open. Change all the lamps are off. If it is winter and you have one, light the fire.

- Set the table as if you were to have a good meal with friends. Most want you to sell your dining room as a fun place and covered that impression.

- Start bit 'of pop music - nothing offensive - Smooth Jazz is a good option. Keep the volume low - inBackground.

- This is fundamental to remove all small valuables in sight. I believe that all home buyers are on their best behavior, but sometimes this is not the case - it is better than cure.

- The most important thing that you remove from your home to help you sell, you are. Bring the family for the day or for a few hours during the open house / exhibition. Normally, when a house to attend an open house, is never so well -Buyers always feel they are imposing, and that is not what you want. You want them to spend time in your home.

10 things in a new vision of home-plan

Since I recently finished building our new home I thought I'd share some insights into building a new home. There are many new house plans available today and the sky is the limit for the functions and styles. The biggest problem with the design-build process is when we decided that we would enter a new home in human nature and we want it to happen overnight. The problem is that we usually do not spend enough time observing and considering the designAspects of the new house. The most important thing to remember is a little more 'at the beginning of time will be done to prevent having second thoughts once the house is. The following list gives important things to consider when choosing a new house plan of ten.

1. Style - I think that the style of the house is the best place to start. The style of the house will do with so many choices that are so important for her to spend the time to think about the style of linkingYou want to live the preferences are more modern or traditional? Do you want a house that's connected to your neighbor? What style of home value remains the best in your area? What style house is the style of interior design and fit closely to your existing structure? These are all questions that you have to ask yourself and your family. This was a difficult question for my wife and I grew up than we are on two sides of the country and our different styles.

2.Number of bedrooms - This question can be answered simply and easily, but you should think about and discuss. The simple answer to this question would be based on your size and needs of the contemporary family. It has two bedrooms and now need four bedrooms, on the road, when the family grows. Or maybe you need four bedrooms are still your children to college in a few years.

3. Vs single layer. Multiple levels - If your house is just a new level orall that is really a personal decision. Some people like to live with a level without climbing stairs up and down. Some people prefer the traditional cape and colonial style house with bedrooms on the second floor. Some sites are relatively small countries and looking for some decent square footage may only be able to build a multi-level house. If you think you can retire and live in your home when you get older the house at the individual level can invoke.

4.Master Bedroom Suite - new modern home plans usually offer a master bedroom. These suites often have generous closet space and a large bathroom with bathtubs, hot tubs, showers and even a large closet. These suites usually the home's value and make the house more marketable, if you sell in the future.

5. Bonus room (laundry, Play) - One of the most popular trend in today's laundry rooms house plansand the renewed popularity of storage chambers. In fact, in my new house we have a mudroom, a combination laundry and pantry. Some plans offer the home laundry room on the second floor of the multi-leveal homes. A word of caution when a laundry room on the second floor. Be sure to insist that any type of drainage system in full in the unlikely event there is a broken washing machine hose can be mounted.

6. Number of bathrooms - The average number of bathrooms in new buildings in constantincreased over the years. The average U.S. home has more than 2 1 / 2 bathrooms and the media seems to lead back to 3.

7. Kitchen style - I could write a whole article on this, but the main point is that many floors of the house have only a basic kitchen layout. My proposal is found in a house like you and then change the kitchen according to your wishes. Many stores offer home-to design a new kitchen for free based on the layout, so do not be a simplediscourage a layout plan home like cooking very much.

8. Floor Plans - In the assessment of plans to try to imagine how it expresses the house and how you plan to use different rooms in your daily life. Get a tape measure and measure the rooms in the house now is an idea of how much space 12'x15 really. Often people have difficulty seeing the size of a room and later, when the house is finished, they are not happy with the format. Ireally a lot of time recommended for evaluation.

9. Functionality - is the new house plan actually features one of the most important aspects for your long-term use and comfort of home. The dining room If you set the other side of the room, so you have a meal through the living room, soon realize that it does not take very functional. The same applies to the proximity of the bathrooms to the bedrooms. Again, I think it's important to compare,where he currently lives in the house plan and think about your likes and dislikes.

-. 10 House Site The site can sometimes play an important role in, layout, style and functionality. For example, if you can be a very small place that you need two levels. Or maybe your lot is hilly and really need to drive in a garage. Just make sure that if you have any intention of doing so based on the amount assessed as well.

If you are one of this articleRemember, plan, plan, plan and plan a bit '. The more you plan your new home plans and evalulate the happier you are when you finally live in your new home.

Crafts and Fun With Things Around the House

Cannot find anything fun for your children to do today? There's always something to make with the simplest stuff lying around your house. You just have to use your imagination to find out what and how to make things.

Empty soda pop cans may be used for several things; they aren't just trash. Gather the cans and some glue and you are on your way to making a robot. All you need is two cans for each leg, four cans for the body, two cans for the arms, one can for the neck, and 2 more cans for the head. Clue them all together and make your robots come to life. Also, you can make some games out of empty pop cans. You could line them up and let your children throw balls at them to see who knocks the most down, or set them up like bowling pins.

With empty milk jugs, your children can make and decorate their very own piggy bank. Cut a hole big enough for every coin under the lip of the milk jug so they can slip their money in. Let them decorate it however they desire. If your child thinks a piggy bank is not a good enough idea, they could also make a planter. Cut the top off of the milk jug, fill it with soil, and let them plant seeds of their choice in them. Make sure they keep up with the plant and water it. They can watch their creation grow and enjoy it too!

Can kids really have more fun with the box than the toy? Do they really need to have the toys that come with them? Get a big empty box, draw wheels and headlights on it! You could cut holes in the bottom of the box for their legs and get a paper plate for the steering wheel. To keep the box up and off the floor punch holes in the front and back of the box. Tie one side of the string to the front of the box and the other to the back. Do this on both sides of the box and the strings become almost like suspenders for the car. If the basic drawings on the box aren't good enough to the child let them design their own car. This could be fun for the whole family. With more than one of these cars they can have races, their own car shows, and anything else that comes to their imagination.

You and your children can put on a puppet show. All you need is a couple of old socks. Draw some faces on them and make them say what you want. You can get more elaborate and sew or glue on yarn hair, button eyes, or any other kinds of notions you can think of. Make the puppets come to life and hang an old sheet to create a background or stage. There are many ways to create crafts and games for kids with stuff around the house. Use your imagination and let your children explore the different ways to recycle "trash."

People Today have really busy lifestyles. When you actually do get a day off you should make it count. In this text I will compose for you a suggested list of recreational activities. Some you may like, some you may not like. I hope that it will help narrow down fun thing for you to enjoy.

A nice quiet day of fishing is always nice durring the Spring, Summer, and Fall. Some people do enjoy ice fishing in the Winter as well. That is far too cold for me though. Another enjoyable afternoon can be spent hiking. You may not even have to travel far to do this. Usually you can check on line for near by trails. If you find yourself enjoying the trails you may also want to try trail riding. It is a great workout for you legs. Believe it or not I really enjoy mall walking when the weather is not so nice.

My list of recreational activities is not all physical. I believe in recreation for the mind and soul as well. I enjoy going to rhythmic breathing classes. These classes help you to slow down in these fast paced days that we live in. There is soft music for meditation, and aromatherepy candles. I feel so relaxed after class. Shopping is always a great activity. I feel mentally uplifted when I get together with my friends and go to the mall hit the sales. After we go to the local coffee shop and enjoy a great cup of java as well as the company and chit-chat.

There is a great coffee spot right in the bookstore near my house. I love to unwind in a good book. Reading is definately on my list as well. There is something magical about books. I always find myself lost in the story. I can picture the charecters, scenery, if the author is good I sometimes feel like I'm there watching the story unfold.

I would have to say that my faveorite thing on my list of recreational activities would have to say a good old day at the movie theater. I try to go durring the matine hours. This will save you some money. Usually matine movie tickets are at least $3.00 cheaper. When I have a tighter budget I close all the blinds in my house, pop pocorn, put a movie in and walla a movie theater in my home. Alot of times you can buy the previously viewed dvds from Blockbuster 3 for $20.00. This way you can get something you haven't seen.

Well, I hope you found something on this list that looks recreational to you. I also find myself enjoying the many games on th internet. There are many websites where you can play games for free. Pogo.com is a great example of this. My faveorite are the on line puzzle websites like puzzlebee. I could spen hours just playing around.

Well I hope you enjoy your next day off with a great activity. Just try something new everytime. This way you can start a list recreational activities of your own some day.

Perfect Summer Home Plans

That is what many people want as a get away when the summer hustle and bustle gets to be too much. In the southwest this is especially true. The summer heat gets to be unbearable and the weekends are for heading out of town and up to the cool country. There are many other places in the country that this phenomenon is true as well. It may not be the heat that people want to have a house built from small cottage home plans to which to escape. It may be just getting out of town and away from the city. It may be just to get to another place to escape.

Often people in the city want to have a house built from a country home house plan so it feels like they are escaping to the country even if it is not quite country. Some go as far as to have a log cabin built to make it feel very country. It depends on the area of the county in which you reside.

A house built from a prairie style house plan may look a little out of place in Hawaii but would look great on the plains of Nebraska. An east coast style house would not fit into the desert look in the southwest but does it really matter? Should you be more worried about fitting in or building the house of your dreams. If you are going to live the rest of your life in that house, go for it. Build whatever you want but if you have to worry about resell values, think twice about what you build for your perfect summer home.
