What kind of cutbacks can you make? For example: I drink bottled water. Now at $1 a bottle on something that covers over 65% of our planet is not smart. So I bought one of those water filters that screw into your faucet. I have bottles that I refil over and over again. I take them to work. Do you have a lot of small appliances around that house that are always on? I cut my electronic bill almost in half by unplugging all the clock radios and night lights. I also bought some of those florescent bulbs that look a lot like a regular bulb. These things use 80% less electricity than regular bulbs. You would be surprised, but these small things add up. I know I was spending money on the water filter and energy efficient bulbs but these things will pay for themselves in a month providing they pertain to you. If you really need the money right away start cutting back on your food costs. Romain noodles cost a dime and they taste just as good as campbells chicken noodle that costs $130 a can. Ok no chicken in romain noodles, but you are probably just missing about 4 tiny pieces of chicken. Put a brick inside your toilet 'chamber'. You will use a little lesser water each time you flush..Before you know it you will be ahead. Wanna be creative? Find yourself leaving lights on? Buy a motion sensor switch, the lights will turn on when you enter the room and will turn off (by a set amount of time) when you leave the room. I have one, they cost $15 at HomeDepot. Need new windshield wipers for your car? Who says you have to buy 2? You only need the new one on the drivers side, leave the old wiper on the passenger side. So remember you have to start thinking S-M-A-R-T! Yours truly seahorsehawrey.<br><b>References : </b><br> You have to start thinking S-M-A-R-T. What kind of cutbacks can you make?

Even when they're turned off, they will continue to use electricity as long as they are plugged in to the wall. The rising costs of prices...or a side effect of inflation, is something you can also protect yourself against if your family has any type of stock portfolio by investing in gold, commodities, or TIPS (treasury inflation protected securities). The article linked in my sources does a good job of talking about ways you can protect your investing portfolio and savings from inflation.<br><b>References : </b><br>http://www.thesaneinvestor.com/blog/wordpress/2008/07/14/preparing-for-the-worst-how-id-insure-against-the-dollar/ One way I know about to save electricity is to actually unplug your appliances (not your fridge of course though!).

Well, Google search 'money saving tips' and you will get lists of websites that give you more lists of how to save some money. A good one that I remembered is not to go shopping when you're hungry, since you're less likely to impulse buy. Also, try buying generic brands on some items, it's a lot cheaper. I could tell you a little more, but you should really research it and read it! There's some good stuff out there! Well, good luck!<br><b>References : </b><br> Ya, tell me about it!
