Saving Money Ideas

I would give some tips to save money, everything limited by the lifestyle you have.

1. You can eat very healthy for under $10 a day.
Eat as less meat as possible since is not good for you because all the hormones and chemicals it contains. Try to skip bread too, just doing this you can save around 100$ a month.

For example for breakfast I eat oatmeal, boiled rice with milk and honey bee, wheat boiled with milk and honey bee, you get the idea. Soon after that I use the blender to mix a banana, nuts (or peanuts, soy,etc), honey bee...sometimes I throw an egg in the combination (eggshell included, contains calcium)...anyway, you can try whatever you like. You will get a nice protein shake, natural and tasty, it will keep you going for hours.

Other then that eat fish (wild) , potatoes, corn, you get the idea.

Make also your own juices, mix fruits and vegetables. You can go to your local market and ask for fruits gone bad, they will give to you for free...you can use some of it to make tasty juices.

Take your bike and go once or twice a month to fish, can be fun and save you also money, plus you eat healthy.

2. Use rain water to wash your clothes, it will lower your energy and water bill. Wash cold when possible

Hang the clothes on wires to dry (my English is limited, I don't know how to put this better)...you can buy hanger, they don't take to much space.

3. Cancel your cable TV. Take the news from the internet, for the movies go to http://www.justin.tv/directory/entertainment and for watching live sports http://atdhe.net/

4. Buy used stuff when possible from sites like http://craigslist.org/

5. Use Hydrogen Peroxide to whitten your teeth and rise your mouth. Google it for more informations. Hydrogen Peroxide, salt and soda can even replace your toothpaste.

You can also get read of expensive shampoos and body wash and replace them with pure soap and natural hair and skin care fruits juices.

Pure oil, olives oil, vinegar, lemon and other stuff like this it will keep you healthy and beautiful.

If you are a secure man you should try shaving your head or cut it very short using an electric trimmer so you don't have to go to the hair saloon twice a month. It would save you a lot of money. Also forget about Gillette Turbo, go back to the basic shaving blade...you will get few cuts for a while but in the end you learn how to use it...plus it gives you the best shaving ever.

6. Go to the gym, you workout + you can shower there after...I mean if you like long showers that's the place to go.

7. Do you really need a cell phone ? A land line and answering machine is not enough ? Some of you really need a cell phone...other don't, so cut the service. Forget about that emergency crap...people around you have cell phones so they can make a call for you.
If you really want a cell try to get the most cheapest plan...like 300 minutes a month (free weekends)...WTF, isn't that enough ?

8. Try to find an alternative to the car, a bike is great...of course you cannot commute to far...but 30 miles round trip is not something impossible...depends where you live and what kind of work you do. Think Holland...did you ever been there ? The dutch are using their bikes big time.

9. Feed your pet raw food, meat...less then $10 a week will keep your cat healthy, beef, chicken liver and heart, etc. Stop buying that damn expensive cat food which makes your pet sick...cats or dogs don't need "rice, carrots" and other flavored crap the food contains. I grew up in East Europe...taking your pet to the Vet was unheard of...cats and dogs eat leftovers from the family, no such a thing like pet food. And they lived a long, happy and healthy life.
Also use sand instead cat litter.

Anyway... if any of you have other ideas you can contribute to this topic or open your own. Bye now.

PS: and GOOGLE, GOOGLE all the alternatives you want...go back to the basic nature has to offer.
