How To Keep Monthly Expenses Low

There are many ways to cut back on your monthly expenses without you even realizing that you have cut back. The first way to cut back is with your telephone service, many families carry cell phones so in many cases a home phone is just an added expense to your monthly budget. If you do need to keep your home phone take a good look at your billing statement to see what you are actually using every month. You may have unlimited long distance but you use your cell phone for that so have it removed from your home service, that can be between $10 and $20 in savings per month. The phone service competition has grown over the past few years so you may have the opportunity to call your local phone service provider and talk to them about recalculating your bill to better suit what you are looking for in a home service, this strategy may save you between $10 and $20 as well.

Another huge way to save money is to take a good hard look at your vehicle insurance policy. Your policy may have a deductible of $500 but if you raise it to $1,000 you may see a $10 monthly savings on your bill. If your employment status has changed and you are now working from home and do not drive the 20 plus miles to work everyday, the insurance company can adjust your policy to reflect that change and may save you as little as $10 or as high as $25 per month.
