The Quarterly Trim Of My Expenses

June 9th, 2009 | Posted in Saving Money

Welcome back!

Generally I like to go over all of my various bank and credit card statements each month. However, approximately once a quarter I like to go back and do a detailed look at where my money is going, and see if there are ways that I can trim down my expenses.

For example, while I pay for cable television and internet and am reasonably happy with the price I pay for these services each month, I like to give the company a call once in awhile to see if they can offer me any discounts. Sometimes they will be running a promotion and there is a product or service I can try for free. Also, this helps to ensure that I am receiving their lowest possible rate. I do the same thing with my cellphone company, and doing so keeps me (and my husband) satisfied that we are getting a good deal. It’s easy to do, doesn’t take much time, and the savings can really add up!
