Who Knew Wednesday? Saving Money Part II

Here are our Who Knew Wednesday life hacks for saving money

Switch banks?
This one might be a little tedious but it can also save you a lot of money in the long run. Time to look over bank statements and see if you are being charged monthly service fees. It might be time to consider switching over to a new bank with little or no fees. Sometimes cash rewards are offered for opening up a new account this could be one of those things that saves you hundreds of dollars overtime.

Double pay
Credit card debt in some form or manner. Ways to lower your credit card bill every month is by making sure you your daily average is kept low. Your interest rates depen on how high or low your daily average is. So if you say make to $150 throughout the month instead of one big $300, you’ll money.

Take the Initiative With Friends
We’ve all been there before…you work hard to cut down all spending and then your friends decide to go out to the priciest place in town. What should you do? You don’t want to kill the mood, but you also don’t want to spend all that hard-earned saved money.

To avoid this situation, get into the habit of inviting everyone else out first! You choose where you want go and you still get to spend time with your friends. This is not a surefire method, but it will definitely help keep you out of some sticky situations!
