Ten Easy Lifestyle & Leisure Money Saving Tips
1. Need to keep the kids entertained? Of course it doesn’t always have to cost mega money, why not take them to a local park, rustle up a picnic and make a day of it.
2. Are you making the most of your gym membership? A new breed of low cost or pay as you go gyms are springing up all over the place so you could make a nice little saving.
strong>3. If you’re planning a trip to a theme park, check out the 2 for 1 offers. Quite often they will be on the back of a cereal box or similar – well worth the purchase!
4. Planning a trip to the cinema? Yet a box of popcorn and a drink can be like a second mortgage. Visit the supermarket first!
5. Try a bit of culture, a visit to the museum can be both informative and entertaining. Check out what’s nearby and…. furthermore, what’s free!
6. Make the most of group discounts or family tickets. Buying a family ticket can save you money, and therefore if you need to bring a friend to max out the offer, make sure you do.
7. Visiting a new city? Another great tip is to buy the Time Out guide or similar, because it will tell you the best places to go and even when and where the happy hours are!
8. Calling all students, make the most of your student discount card and look out for the offers when stores double your discount for limited periods. Of course double the discount equals double the money saving!
9. Use those loyalty cards, it might only be a free coffee, but most of all, free is free! Plus, the supermarket cards can make a cash free dent in Christmas costs if you save the points throughout the year.
10. Finally, it’s a big trend in America and we always follow suit, so get in there early – couponing! Check out the local rag and the flyers that come through the door and get snipping!
