Frugality does not mean stinginess at all. Savings mean reducing costs not by reducing the quality of products and services, but only through their rational use. A zealous owner will find a reason not to pay extra money in everything, you just need to look around and cover those holes in the budget into which extra money is flowing.
Instructions
Step 1
It is easiest to save energy - we use a lot of household appliances and everything is not very rational. Do not use deformed burners on the electric stove, then the bottoms of the pots will fit snugly against them and heat up faster, reduce the power of the burners in time so that they do not heat up excessively. Descale the kettle often and only boil the amount of water you need. Do not place the refrigerator next to heating devices and do not place food that has not yet cooled down in it. Use fluorescent lighting bulbs instead of incandescent bulbs.
Step 2
Every month the price of gasoline rises in the country, so advice on saving it will be useful. The more your car weighs, the higher your fuel consumption. Unload it by throwing out all unnecessary weights that you carry in the trunk. Carry out regular preventive maintenance and inspection, change air filters, oxygen sensors on time. Monitor wheel alignment and pressure. Check the braking system regularly and consider the need to use the accelerator pedal while driving.
Step 3
Cold and hot water is no less expensive item in the family budget. Here the most important advice is to install meters to pay for them after the fact, and not according to those fantastic standards that are set by utilities. Repair all plumbing fixtures, leaking taps and always close them tightly. Use a shower, and when washing dishes, plug the sink and use running water only for the final rinse.
Step 4
As you can see, you can save in almost everything, for this you just need to be careful about the money you have earned. If you use such a master's approach, then the family budget will be saved at least 10%, and this is quite serious money.
