Welcome back!
This has already been a really hot summer. (I should have put this up a month ago) There are ways that you can save at this time of year as well as in the winter when it gets incredibly cold. Probably hard to imagine right now, huh? So, here are some tips for that and a couple of stray tips too.
Tip: In the summer, put the thermostat up a couple of degrees from what you’re used to. It will save money and you will not really notice after a short while. And in the winter, put the thermostat down a couple of degrees for the same reason. Believe me, you won’t notice it after a while.
Tip: You will want to check your home to see if it is working at maximum efficency. If it leaks either cool or heat out, then you need to caulk the windows and insulate them. Be sure to check and change the filters on your air conditioner or furnace.
Tip: Call your local electric company to see if they have time-of-day rates. This is when customers are willing to shut things down at peak times to save money. Using electricity at peak times will raise your bill dramatically.
Now for the odd tips:
Tip: When you buy canned ham, slice it or cube it and then freeze it for when you need ham for sandwiches or soups, stews or casseroles.
Tip: The word is ORGANIZE. Put coupons in a file specifically for that. Don’t buy brand names of food products unless there is no other way.
Happy Shopping!!!
