Saving money is something that we all want to do, but sometimes, this is a distant dream
0:12
that we never quite reach. However, with a few small lifestyle changes and a simple mindset shift, you can quickly
0:19
start setting and achieving your saving goals. In this video, we will walk you through 10 Easy Money Saving Hacks
0:25
Now, you don't have to follow every single tip. You can simply incorporate a few into your new minimalist approach to saving
0:33
Number 1. Cut back on takeaways Spending on food and beverages can easily
0:37
rack up without you even realizing. However, by cutting back on daily coffee or lunch orders, you can save a lot faster
0:46
Instead of going cold turkey, give yourself one day a week where you're allowed to order
0:50
out, but for the rest, make coffee and lunch at home. 2

Unsubscribe from promo emails Promotional emails are super tempting. It's hard to resist 20% off your favorite brand
1:02
So, to avoid making impulse purchases, unsubscribe from email notifications. You can search for voucher codes when you really need to buy something online. 3
1:12
Cancel any subscriptions Are you subscribed to your favorite magazine, a fitness app, or a handful of TV services
1:19
If so, take a closer look at your subscriptions and cancel anything that you don't use and
1:23
that's not a necessity. For example, if you are paying for cable and Netflix, you can easily get rid of one of
1:30
the two. 4. Plan your meals Meal planning is one of the best ways to save
1:35
money and stick to a budget. By planning your meals, you will make specific purchases and you won't end up buying things
1:41
that you don't need and that will eventually go to waste. 5
1:46
Take staycations Instead of splashing out on lavish holidays abroad, take staycations when you're trying to save
1:52
It'll take the cost out of paying for expensive flights and hotels
1:56
You can do touristic things in your own country and still feel like you've had a break. 6
2:02
Cut back on electricity consumption You're probably using a lot of unnecessary
2:06
electricity consumption without even realizing it. To save on your high bills, switch to LED lights and turn off appliances and switches
2:14
when they are not in use. In addition, try switching to an instant pot or slow cooker instead of using the hob and oven. 7
2:22
Invest in a high-yield savings account Getting smart with your savings also involves
2:27
opening a savings account with a high interest rate. Depending on your preferences, you can open a fixed deposit account which doesn't allow
2:34
you to break the account for a certain period of time. That said, this type of account gives you a higher return on your money. 8
2:42
Save your spare change Spare change can easily mount up without you
2:46
realizing it. So whenever you have some change, place it in a piggy bank at home and check how much
2:51
you have accumulated over a few months. That said, some apps also allow you to do this with online spending
2:58
For example, when using Revolut, you can select an option that'll automatically save your
3:02
spare change for you. 9. Use cashback sites Cashback sites are a great way to earn some
3:09
extra money when placing orders online. All you need to do is find a website in your country and use their link to refer you to
3:16
the site that you'd like to make your purchase. Following your transaction, you'll then receive cashback based on the order that you made. 10
3:24
Give yourself a weekly cash allowance It's easy to overspend when you're using
3:28
your card, so an easy hack to follow is to give yourself a cash allowance every week
3:33
for daily spending, like food shopping, eating out, and petrol. That way, once your money is out, you can't tap and do any other cash until the following week
3:42
So now that you have these tips, you can easily start your money-saving journey with a strict
3:46
budget and minimal spending. That said, if you're looking for more tips and tricks, visit CareerAddict.com for more advice
