 Look for ways to save on your cell phone bill, on the cable and internet bills and on your heating and electrical bills. There are many ways to save money on the things that you need or the things that you think you need—imagine how much money you would save if you cancelled your cable service! Call your cell phone provider and see if you can switch plans. If you text a lot and are regularly spending $10 to $15 a month on text messages, you should probably be on a fixed-rate messaging plan instead so you can pocket the difference. If your usage changes, change your plan to reflect that and you can keep more of your money and put it towards your vacation. Winterize your house so that you keep more heat inside the house and the furnace doesn’t have to work overtime to keep you warm. For under $20 you can winterize 10 windows and see the savings immediately. Turn your thermostat down a few degrees and see the savings on your next gas bill. See How Much You Can Save Look for ways to save now and you’ll be able to save enough money in the 30 or so weeks before summer vacations start to actually go on one! Making a few changes now can help you get further and enjoy your holidays longer. If you turn these into long-term solutions you can worry a little less since your vacation fund will always have a little money in it, even after the holidays. |
