How to Save Money Without Trying!
How to save money for your Next Mortgage, Refinance or Home Loan with Iron Point Mortgage in Folsom, CA
Saving money for small purchases or extra spending money on vacations doesn’t need to be boring or hard. It can be easy and fun! I found two clever ideas that can help you save without really even trying!
It’s very simple. The first idea is to use an empty 20oz bottle, like a coke bottle. You might want to rinse it out first so it won’t be sticky and then and let it dry. At the end of the day, go through your change and deposit all of your dimes. When the 20oz bottle is full there should be over $100 in dimes. Ridding your dimes at the end of the day is so easy and effortless because it doesn’t seem like you’re putting way a lot of money, so it shouldn’t be hard to stash away and the fun part is when the bottle is full. Now you have over $100.
Once you’ve conquered the dime deposit you may want a bit of a challenge. So, my next idea is to make some sort of safe, like a shoebox or a shadow box frame. That makes it more visible and fun. Now every time you get a $5 bill, put it in your “safe”! At the end of the year, you should have a great savings! I’ve paid for my family vacation to Disneyland using this trick!
