How to save money?

This post is not about how to get rich and wealthy - we have been creating other posts to discuss that topic - however, this can be an important step to get there. How to actually put some money aside in your day-to-day life to save it and use it for something that can make you wealthy. 

I have created the following checklist for you in order to save some money that you can invest or spend it for something else. Sometimes we don't even realize our bad habits until it causes major problems. Let's avoid it. 

• Get rid of unnecessary spending habits that don’t serve you and start better ones.

• Don’t waste food and other products.

• Organize your stuff better, If you need to, so you can see it clearly what you have and what you really need. If everything is in its own place, you don't forget about it. 

• Track your spending. You can use great apps for this purpose. A few examples are: Fast Budget, iSaveMoney, MoneyManager. You can also use your own styled Excel table for this purpose. Whichever option is easier for you. The main point is, don't lose control over your money; your income and spending. 

• It's for your health as well: walk instead of taking the bus or metro for 2 stops or driving to the end of the street. You can also use bicycle.

• Prepare food and cook at home. 

• Really use these tips, motivate yourself, think about how much money you can save that you can use for something better than just waste it. Think about a goal that you would like to spend your money on.

• Please, please, please, don’t use anything that ruins your health, because in the long term it will take too much time, energy and money to eliminate the negative effects that they have caused.

• Use your loyalty and benefit cards every time you can, and don’t forget them at home.

Loyalty Cards can save you much money as you get back points, cash and discounts for your loyalty and after purchases in particular stores and shops. It is a way from the businesses of giving back to loyal customers who spend much in their stores and also a method of marketing which you can benefit from. You can use cards or mobile apps for this purpose.

Here is a list of companies and brands that offer loyalty cards and great discounts. A lot of them are in the United Kingdom,because I live here and I'm more up-to-date about how things go here, but I will make research on the topic in other countries, too. Also, if these companies operate in the country where you live, this list of information still can be relevant for you. 

The main point is: watch out for discounts and rewards. Some of the shops, although, don't have any reward program, because they operate with regular low prices.

As I have said before, think about the long term, and pick the good quality and healthy, but if you can save money with your healthy choices that's the best option that you can ever choose.   

 So here is the list:
