If you’re keen to increase the gap between your income and your outgoings, these strategies could help

More Bang For Your Buck

Use Comparison Sites

There’s a huge amount of competition out there. Businesses are battling with each other to take on new customers. New customers are often offered better rewards and offers than existing customers

Anything from credit cards and car insurance to electricity and TV and broadband. Shop around and do not ever think you will get discount if you are a loyal customer

If you’ve been with the same energy provider for as long as you can remember, switch. If it’s been a while since you checked out other insurance providers, take advantage of comparison sites

In a matter of minutes, you can look at a vast range of different policies, plans, packages, and providers to see if you could get more for your money

If you’re not happy with the service you’re receiving, or you think other companies could offer you a better deal, switch

All you have to do is put in some details about what you’re looking for, hit the return button, and see what’s out there

Even if you just make a small monthly saving on every bill you pay, this will soon add up over the course of a year

If you have seen better deals online, it may also be worth contacting your current provider and seeing if they could match or even better the offer

Join Mailing Lists

If you tend to shop at the same stores all the time, it’s worth subscribing to mailing lists. Follow those businesses on social media too for extra deals and offers they are promoting

Retailers often offer discounts and deals to drum up interest and push sales. If you’ve seen something you want, you may find that if you join the mailing list, you get a code sent to your inbox

If you wait for flash sales and special offers, you may be able to get more bang for your buck

I have recently started to use Karma shopping assistant which lets you know when price drops happen. It’s free to use and you can get a google chrome extension

Use Vouchers

Are you planning to go out for dinner? Are you organising days out for the summer holidays? Stocking up on new clothes?

If so, have a look online and search for vouchers and discount codes.

If you’re going out for tea after a day at a theme park, for example, you could save a vast amount of money by taking advantage of offers like 2 for 1 ticket and buy one main course, get one free.

Most of us would like our money to go further

If you’re trying to save, or you’d like to try and bring your household bills down, hopefully, you’ll find this guide useful.
