How can I save on my income?

 

Saving on a small income is possible. By following a few rules you should find that a small

amount is available to be put aside at the end of every month.

 

• Buy necessities first and luxuries last.

• Take advantage of benefits available e.g. scholarships, legal aid, etc.

• Budget carefully and plan in advance.

• Get the best quality for the lowest price.

• Try to get what is needed without spending money or spend only for raw materials.

• Make informed decisions on large purchases.

• Shop around and make comparisons of costs and rates.

• Negotiate prices and ask for discounts - always possible when paying cash.
