I love saving money, but sometimes life gets in the way. Sometimes we get unexpected bills which can throw a budget out and therefore savings are lower. However, by using the combinations in this post, I try and stay on track as best as I can.

For me, the thing that has helped me the most with saving my money is changing my mindset about saving. I used to view it as deprivation and as something that kept me from spending the way that I wanted to, which made me very unmotivated to do it. More recently, I’ve started to view my savings as the key to having freedom and time in the future, which is far more motivating.
So true.. that is how I’ve felt.. now I feel inspired to save more and not spend.
Oh wow this is an epic list! I could be here all day looking at each post 🙂
