Your Very, Very Best Money Saving Tips: Updated!!!
One of the most popular posts ever here at No Credit Need was the “Your Very, Very Best Money Saving Tips” post. After moving from blogger to dedicated hosting, some of my links got messed up. So, I thought I’d copy all of the links, and put them here. If you have an awesome money saving tip, create a post on your blog, and leave me a comment here. I’ll link to it, folks will see it, and you will rule. Here are the current tips:
Here’s my Very, Very Best Money Saving Tip
1. Learn to enjoy, buy, and use generic and / or store branded items. If you use coupons and can get deals on brand name items, YAY! But, for those items without coupons, I have found that the quality of store branded items is the same as the quality of branded items, and they usually cost much, much less.
See, that’s a simple, easy to understand Money Saving Tip.

[...] If the average American has $8000 in credit card debt (a figure that I doubt, but I’ll use it for the sake of making a point), she could be out of debt in less than a year if she managed to reduce spending by only $25 per day.

All of you have great ideas and I read every one of them.
I don’t have a blog, but my money saving idea is to throw away all catalogs immediately. If I don’t see it I don’t buy it!

The way that we saved a lot of money was by switching our phone serivces. We went with Vonage on our home phone, savings of $30 a month. We also switched our cell phones to a pay as you go with TMobile. We now pay $100 a year per phone, which was a savings of $1200 a year for us. So, my best tip is to add up your yearly costs for things, and then figure out if there is a way to cut them back.

I just posted at my site http://www.eventualmillionaire.com/ and my tip has saved me $625 so far this year!
It’s a fact that Americans spend over $7 billion per year on unnecessary directory assistance calls — that’s about $2 per 411 call. It may not seem like much, but next time you need to call 411, you can get the same information for free with 1-800-free411. Then stuff the $2 in your piggy bank. For more info on the service:
