As I mentioned yesterday and Sunday, I had the privilege of co-teaching a seminar on budgeting and creative money saving tips as part of the Tools for the Journey workshop at my church. They recorded most of the seminars, so you can look for those here sometime this week.
These are the resources that we came up with that we personally use to help us save money and get good deals on all kinds of things from groceries to eating out to entertainment and so much more. Crown Money Management is a great place to start. Really helps set your mind and your heart on what God has to say about money. Please ask if you have *any* questions! (And yes, I do get referral credit on several of these sites, so if you’re already thinking about signing up for one of these, I would greatly appreciate you doing so through these links)
More Resources for Using Creativity to Budget and Save Money
- Money Back for shopping (use these if you were already going to do some online shopping, don’t use them as an excuse to go shopping!)
- Money Saving Blogs:
- Printable Coupons:
- Coupons.com
- Smartsource
- RedPlum
- MamboSprouts for healthier food options
- Whole Foods Market
- Coupons that load onto your loyalty card (all of these also have printables):
- Daily Deal Sites (remember to check if it really IS a good deal, and don’t be tempted by things that you don’t need!):
- And I can’t forget to add SwagBucks! It’s a search engine that you can earn points to, you then use the points to get things like Amazon.com gift cards.
Alright, folks, that’s all she wrote! (for now anyway) Now go make a plan (a budget, a meal plan, a grocery list, SOMETHING) and stick to it!
