I thought I’d put out a list of things I do to help save money and see what other people out there do too:
- ask for a better deal on service providers once per year (NBN, electricity, gas, phone)
- use the energy compare website when considering other providers (receive the $50 bonus)
- ask for a reduced interest rate from my bank at least once a year
- refinance with banks willing to be more competitive or offer cashback incentives
- use prepaid mobile as they provide better conditions for a lower price in most cases
- participate in focus groups
- purchase only on sale items in grocery shop and let that decide what I’ll cook
- buy generics. use things like ‘disposable’ razors instead of ‘non disposable’. The only main difference I notice is price
- load up on non expiry items when they are on sale eg deodorant
- put everything on my loan offset or redraw. Put some extra in ETF and super
- bargain and use coupons/promo codes whenever possible
- use this website
There’s probably others but this is what I can think of at the moment.
Interested to hear any other ideas or to hear if anyone else is weird like me.
lol..at least just use youtube to do your travels
