How to save a family budget: what you need to know

Family budget can and should be saved, especially in crisis.

What can be saved on? On the quality of food or hygiene, of course, you should not save, health is more important. It is necessary to save on our weaknesses and craving for unnecessary things. So, how can I save, making purchases?

Pay for purchases in cash. Credit and plastic cards are seduced by the purchase of spontaneous and, in general, unnecessary purchases. Cash slander and awaken a sense of reality.

Make a menu for a week in advance and make purchases in accordance with your list. A store or a market with a compiled list is best to visit once a week: so you will know exactly what to cook in the next 7 days, and protect yourself from unnecessary purchases.

When buying vegetables and fruits, give preference to seasonal and local goods: in this case, you do not have to pay for transportation costs and expenses associated with cultivation in greenhouses.

The next point applies to women: often for the same product we pay 2 times more than men, especially this is evident by the example of buying shaving blades. Men’s razors are no worse than female and are much cheaper.
