Get started - 5 tips for making money go further
1) Use a budgeting tool! A number of sites offer this and many banks have this available to their customers; it calculates how much you have left each month once direct debits have gone out.
2) Plan meals and reduce food waste.
3) Popping to the shops? Don’t be tempted to purchase more than you need, keep receipts and record on your budgeting sheet. If money is tight, don’t forget food parcels are available, this can free up money for other essential purchases.
4) Check your energy tariff. Don’t pay more than you need to, you can switch even if you have some debt (some T&C’s apply). On a prepayment meter? You can still switch although the choice is more limited. Need advice contact Citizens Advice.
5) Look at your subscriptions are there any that you can reduce or re-negotiate or avoid renewing.
