A little rhyme I came up with!
Be wise with your money you’ll have the last laugh
Insurance, mortgages, ISA’s and tax
Shop savvy and smart, seek out the best deals
Take a packed lunch to work instead of splurging on meals
Regular savings will grow like a weed
Try to stop shopping for things you don’t need
It’s true this is all very easy to say, but try to improve just a little each day!!

Budget monthly, every time I get paid I put away a monthly sum for each bill, plus a little extra for any “little surprises” If I dont have the money put aside, I don’t buy it.
Hayley Evans
I never rush into a purchase, I always give myself time to research prices and then consider if I really need it #rainydaymoney

#rainydaymoney We shop in Tesco and instead of having our reward vouchers two a year, we have them once a year at Christmas. We have on average £100 every year just by shopping!

I always ask for £2 coins in my change and they go straight into the emergency fund jar. #rainydaymoney

I stock up on heavily discounted Halloween / Christmas / Easter treats after the event as the sell by date could be 2 years away and they’ll come in for the following year

#rainydaymoney- Drop all of your change into a jar and bank it every month!
Ian Campbell
When at home in the cooler months, wear more layers of clothing instead of turning the heating up. That way, you get plenty of self warmth, without expensive bills – result!

Put away a couple of quid a day #rainydaymoney

Meal plan both lunch and dinner!! Saves an unbelievable amount of money!

We sell old clothes and toys and put the money away to spend on family days out.
Laura Findlay
Save a little but regularly. It soon adds up x
Hannah Smalley
I take out my food budget money in cash so I’m very conscious of then sticking to my budget and what is actually necessary (& hopefully some left over for rainy day fund), same with clothes and present budgets #rainydaymoney

If you need something check the internet first to see where you can buy it cheapes

Fragranced candles are such a lovely addition to any home but can be costly as the wick can tend to burn out leaving such a lot of wasted wax at the bottom. To avoid throwing out this unused wax just carefully scrape the wax from the holder into a ceramic wax burner. You now have a few more hours of your favourite candle to fragrance your home.

I save all my £2 coins all year, it is surprising how much I have at the end of the year
Deborah Mackenzie
I save all my loose change and then when I do cash it in I am surprised at how much I have.

Have a specific goal to save for – it makes saying no to random purchases much easier when you have a clear idea of what you really want
Sam Parkes
Resist the sales as half time come back with stuff don’t even want or need
Lynn Seymour
Think twice before using the car. It’s often quicker to walk

Use cashback websites for all online shopping and use supermarkets own brands as a lot cheaper and usually are the same or better than branded products
amanda greensmith
always check for the best price and use cash back sites
David Greenhalgh
use comparison sites and switch credit cards regularly to those offering 0% apr on balance transfers
Michaela B (@ScottAlexasMum)
I never buy anything I see on sale in the shops without checking online first to see if its cheaper elsewhere. More often than not the ‘deal’ being advertised in the shop isn’t actually saving me anything.

Use a cashback website, pay with credit cards that reward when spending and always pay off the balance every month – credit card interest rates are enormous! #rainydaymoney

sallyanne rose
budget shampoo, good conditioner – also expensive moisturizer is no better than budget, just find one with a consistency you like
Catherine thomas
Make a shopping list so you know exactly what you need to buy and start by shopping in the reduced section first to see if there are any bargains.

A bar of soap is way cheaper than liquid soap or shower gel less packaging too. I always make sure I pay for things with change if I have it and always think twice before using a £10 or £20 note, maybe i don’t need what I was going to buy enough to use a £10 note.
