Where can you cut back or what can you eliminate so you can go on that trip this year?If you spend $13.70 a day on unnecessary expenses, you are wasting $5000 a year.$5000 can get you a very nice trip/vacation.10 Ways to Save NOW:1) Stop buying your coffee, bottled water or other beverages outside the home. Daily Starbucks adds up. Make your coffee at home. Bring a reusable bottle of water from home as well.2) Cigarettes or Alcohol or other vices. The average annual cost of smoking is $832 which is moderate airfare for an international flight (off season). Neither addiction is good for your health anyway.3) Eating out. Limit this expense and prepare your own meals and eat at home.4) Memberships- gym, boutique fitness studios, massage, cryo, etc.5) Streaming services- Netflix, Hulu, Disney, etc. It all adds up and truthfully, how much are you really using or watching?6) Buying books- Use your local library, borrow from friends or use the neighborhood free book cabinets around town.7) Monthly services/subscriptions: StitchFix (other clothing delivery), Bark box, monthly/weekly meal deliveries, cosmetic box of the month, etc. Stop these services and you could save $100 plus a month.8) Pedicures and Manicures.
