I've done it before and I'm doing it again, giving myself haircuts.
I've given my husband every haircut he's had during the last 21 years. And sometimes I cut my own hair.
Well today, with my husband's help, I cut my hair and it looks fine, a medium length bob.
So I just saved $50 and once every 6 weeks multiplied by 8, let's say, I will save $400. If I lived in an area with a higher cost of living, I would have saved more. How much has my husband saved over 21 years?
Why are we doing this? We are realigning our priorities and our expenses just like everyone else in America because "The times they are a'changing."
Don't laugh. It will happen to you. If you don't do haircuts, you may cut out restaurants, fast food, extra pairs of shoes, driving around just for fun, some things that you used to spend money on that are just not worth it now.
The only way to have more money is to make more or spend less than you make. There is no other magic about it.
When you think of creative ways to save, please share them. We all need to be inspired.
