10 Ways to Save $50 Per Month: The Art of Pinching a Penny Until It Screams

1. Save up to 50% per month on convenience cleaner cloths by cutting them into half, i.e. dryer softener cloths, face cleanser cloths, etc.

Savings: $5 per month

2. Find more thoughtful gifts and buy when the item is on sale, shop for birthdays and holidays throughout the year not at the time of the events.

Savings: $10 per month

3. Bring your lunch to work once a week instead of eating out.

Savings: $7 x 4 weeks = $28 per month

4. Don't go to the coffee shop on the weekends.

Savings: 2 visits @ $2 = $4 per week x 4 weeks = $16 per month

5. If you carry a balance on your credit card, and you're only able to afford paying the minimum monthly amount, pay weekly installments instead of one monthly payment. For example, if you owe $100 per month, pay $25 per week. Because credit card companies accrue interest daily on your balance, paying only once a month is a huge detriment to your fiscal health.

Savings: $10 - $100 per month (or more!)

6. Instead of a family night out, consider having an old fashion picnic together or a bike ride. Curbing entertainment costs doesn't mean curbing the fun.

Savings: $25+ per month

7. Spend a day cooking meals that can be frozen for later use for your family. Once a Month Cooking, a book by Mary Beth Lagerborg and Mimi Wilson, features grocery lists and recipes to prepare and freeze a month's worth of food for you and your family. Not only are you able to purchase the food in bulk, this method prevents having to throw away any spoiled food.

Savings: $50+ per month

8. If you are a regular monthly book buyer, stop the habit and visit your library instead! If you insist on buying books, buy it used at your local store or online at merchants such as www.half.com or www.amazon.com. Even a better idea, how about selling the books you have that you don't need!

Savings: $5 - 15 per month

9. Use less expensive gasoline. If you live in North America and have Internet access, you are able to search for the cheapest gas price in your neighborhood with Gas Buddy, www.gasbuddy.com.

Savings: $5 - 15 per month

10. Use two-for-one coupons when dining out; search for these in local newspapers, flyers, and in your "junk mail." If you are a group of four or more people, consider buying dining certificates at Restaurant.com, www.restaurant.com. After choosing your city and state on the Website, you will be presented with a listing of restaurants vying for your dining dollar!

Savings: $5- $50 per month

Everyone wants to be financially secure, but finding the road to that security is a completely different story. Although very seldom is it done, real wealth can be created by putting away money from your 9 to 5 job everyday. The truly wealthy people out there have found many different ways to secure their wealth.

This is going to sound like an obvious statement, but in order to create more wealth, you have to bring more money in every single month. It is funny how few people really work at doing this. You see, many people would like to have all of the things that go along with being wealthy. The vacations, the house and the cars, and the comfort that you can have from having a large amount of wealth. Yet, very few people really actually work to bring in more money into their lives each and every month.

So I have been in the Oil and Gas industry for the past 7 years. You might say "Well if your in the oil and gas what do you need to know about Wealth building from home for?"

As things continue to look gloomy economically, now is as good a time as ever to find ways to make money quick. There are many things you can do from the comfort of your own home or locally to bring in hundreds of extra dollars.
