2. Clip and redeem $25 in coupons per week.
When the Sunday paper comes, clip at least $25 worth of coupons good on the products you use regularly. When you redeem them over the course of the month, you will save $100. You can also use Coupons.com to help you reach your goal.
3. Cut out the cable extras.
Eliminate the extras your cable company offers such as high def channels and movie channels and you can easily save $35 or more a month. Over the course of 3 months, you can save $100.
4. Combine your errands.
When running errands, try to combine them all over the course of one day instead of a bunch of small trips through out the week. When you do this you can easily save $10 a week in gas if not more. After ten weeks, you have saved $100.
5. Shop second hand clothing stores.
When you buy secondhand clothing, you can score pieces for as low as $2 each. Swap out just 6 department store pieces (at approx. $20 each retail) for 6 second hand/thrift store pieces and you save $100
6. Buy generic.
Try buying generic cereals, soups, and other grocery items instead of name brand for just one trip a month and see how much you can save. Over the course of 3 months or less you can easily save $100.
7. Skip the dry cleaning.
Iron your own clothing and invest in non-dry clean clothing items so you can skip the dry cleaners. By omitting this service you can easily save $100 over the course of a few months.
8. Be mindful of utility usage.
Shut off lights when not in use. Take shorter showers. Se your thermostat a few degrees lower. Small changes like this add up and you can easily save $100 or more over the course of a year.
9. Join a baby sitting co-op.
Exchange baby sitting services with a friend or group of parents instead of paying a sitter by the hour. With many sitters charging as much as $10 an hour, it won’t take long before you save $100 by joining a co-op.
