Tips for Saving Money, Cutting Expenses, etc.

I mentioned this in another thread, but a great way to save on the electric bill is to turn off or unplug everything when you're not using it. A phone charger uses electricity even when it's not charging. We unplugged our base this month for our regular phone and my bill went down again. The phone lasted a good week without a charge. Our TV and cable box are also attached to a power strip which we turn off if we're not watching it. We turn off the internet as well.

I also lump all of my errands in an area. That saves time and money.
