You should always "Unplug" your appliances that you do not use all the time, such as, tv,vcr,stereo,dvd, ect.. This will help lower your electric bill. The power supply in the device is using electricity even when it is not on, while plugged into the outlet.

hi
Saving money and being more frugal is neither a science nor an art; rather it is somewhere in between and requires your commitment and hard work. Saving money takes time to develop, needs to be learnt, and brings benefits that will endure for the rest of your life.
Begin to save money today. Do not put it off. Saving money is within your control and can bring you huge benefits. You will reap the rewards of saving money for years to come. Whether you save money on travel, save money on insurance, or save money on heating bills, remember every little counts - start today and save money every day.

I bought a surge protector for my pc that automatically turns itself off when the computer is shut down. All the peripheral devices that I need while the computer is up and running have the 'vampire' dc converters so they all shut off along with the computer and fire back up when I need them. I hope to install these where ever it is practical.I YQ YQ R

Money Saving Tips
Here are a couple of tips that we can apply in our own home.
1. Scrap the "old-fashioned" land line and replace your monthly cell phone subscriptions with a prepaid plan is an excellent money saving tip. Just don’t stay on your cell phone as long as before! If you have a computer, use your unique web page provided by the cell service to send free text messages.
2. To save money, you must beware of convenience foods. Pre-made meals are fine in an emergency, but most of this kind of food is not very healthy and very expensive for what you get.
Hope these help.

Saving money is good but sometimes you can't help yourself from buying not so necessary things that you've just while walking along.. I think investing your money is more effective than saving.. When you invest, you no longer need to save as your money will just keep on profiting and you don't have to worry too much..

Hello guys...!
Thanks for sharing useful information...There are so many ways to save money.... One of my most effective money saving tips is to shop for groceries at a warehouse food store, rather than a traditional supermarket...!

Make large batches of breakfast/snack foods on the weekends, and individually pack them. Then, stick them in the freezer. Then if you're in a rush, instead of stopping at a fast food place, you can toss something into the microwave and be on your way with something healthy. This works great for things like breakfast burritos (scramble eggs with some cheese, pepper, and potato, and wrap with a burrito). Easy!

There are so many ways to save money - buy in bulk, coupons, only shop on sale, take advantage of thrift stores and yard sale, carpool, walk or ride a bike when you can instead of driving, unplug everything when it's not in use, embrace fresh air in your home or car over the AC, leave nothing on when you are not home, don't buy things unless you need them, don't use credit cards for any purchase, think about any big purchase for a few days to determine if you really need it... most of all, just be more mindful of your consumer/spending habits - enjoy experiences rather than the things you own.
