The crisis is a difficult time, especially for women. Prices are rising, wages remain the same, and I always want to look good. There are several secrets on how not to infringe on yourself during a crisis.
Instructions
Step 1
Visit grocery stores only on a full stomach, so the risk of buying something extra is much lower. Get yourself a separate wallet for small change and, if possible, do not change large bills, trying to pay with small ones. Buy rural products, as they sometimes turn out to be significantly lower than industrial production.
Step 2
Team up with a group of friends and buy groceries in bulk. Usually sellers are willing to give a discount if you purchase a large amount of goods.
Step 3
Study your wardrobe thoroughly and evaluate what purchases you can do without. If shopping is necessary, then follow the discounts: sometimes the same thing can be bought with a difference of 50-70% depending on the time.
Step 4
Look for free cultural activities. Such festivities are very often arranged in summer, but in winter, if you wish, you can find some noteworthy free excursion or exhibition.
Step 5
Meet with friends not in a cafe, but have a food party. Let everyone cook and bring a dish, it will be very fun and very inexpensive. And in order not to spend a lot of money on telephone communications, install an application for calls over the Internet (for example, Viber or Skype).
Step 6
Get yourself a cash-back debit card and pay with it if possible. The beauty of such a card is that the bank returns you 1-3% from each of your purchases to the card in the form of bonuses, which you can spend in the same way as rubles to pay for your purchases.
Step 7
Instead of buying a card to a fitness club, download yourself some interesting application with a selection of workouts to your phone. This will allow you to train at home, outdoors and even in the office at any time convenient for you, and at the same time will save you more than one thousand rubles.
