500 rubles saved per week, perhaps not so much savings. However, if you add up the savings over the whole year, in general, a very decent amount can accumulate.
Instructions
Step 1
Make coffee at home
Have you counted how much money it takes you to buy coffee for work? For some, two cups of coffee are enough, others drink coffee throughout the working day, and besides, double. Thus, someone can spend 100 rubles a week only on this invigorating drink, and someone even 500 rubles. Instead of constantly buying coffee from a store, cafeteria or coffee machine every day, make coffee at home in the morning and bring it with you to work by pouring it into a thermos or thermo mug.
Step 2
Walk more
Do you always drive? Explore your route as you don't have to constantly use your car and drive where you can walk. For example, leave the car and walk, cutting through the yards, instead of making a detour by the car, and even standing at the traffic lights. Thus, you can save a little amount of gasoline, but even more benefits will not be for your wallet, but for your health, because walking burns extra calories and improves the overall tone of the body. Having a car does not mean that you have to use it every day at every convenient moment.
Step 3
Plan your food purchases
Do you buy food just to be there and then throw away the uneaten food? When you plan your meals carefully, you know ahead of time what foods you will need during the week. For example, instead of buying six "just in case" carrots, you can only buy two because you know exactly what you are going to make. If you plan all meals and snacks for the week, then you know what you need and how much you will spend. By not buying unnecessary food, you will save up to 500 rubles a week and even more, if, moreover, you pay less attention to the bright, flashy packaging of goods that you just want to buy, even if you do not need it. Keep in mind that if you have leftover food, you can freeze it, which again will save your budget.
Step 4
Lend instead of buying
If you have an event that needs a new outfit, you don't have to buy it. Ask your friends or girlfriends if they have something suitable. Most likely they have something. The same idea works for books and DVDs, for example. You can borrow from friends, rent or go to the library. In addition, first it is better to familiarize yourself with a product, try it out, because if you bought it, something might not suit you or you might not like it.
