In order to develop your budget, keep all of your receipts for a month or two. That way you can get a realistic sense of where you are in your current spending.
An Easy Start
Don't tempt yourself! Cut off magazine and listserv subscriptions that advertise new electronics. 0 Comments
Look for discounts online. Some brick and mortar stores will even honor their online prices. 0 Comments
Diving In
Always wait at least a week before making a purchase over $100. This will give yourself time to cool down and evaluate if this is truly a purchase you want. 1 Comments
Make sure you buy gadgets with the features you need, but leave hipness and brand names aside. 1 Comments
Super Saver
Read product reviews to ensure you are getting a product that you are satisfied with and will be worth the investment. 0 Comments
Restrain yourself - get help from friends if you have to. If there's something you know you want, make a fund that you pay into every week or month through automatic withdrawal. When you have enough, make your purchase. 0 Comments
