Real Money Savings: Tips from '30SecondMom'

February 7, 2014 (CHICAGO)

Have you ever purchased an item, only to see it on sale the next day? Many stores offer price adjustment policies for this very scenario. Make sure to check the company's website for details. It pays to keep tabs on your purchases, literally!

Want to encourage your kids to read anytime? Just go to your local home improvement store and buy vinyl gutters with end caps and mounting brackets. One 10-foot shelf, with all the parts, costs no more than $20.

Most people save more when they set up an automatic savings plan. Establish regular withdrawals for your future either directly from your paycheck, or directly from your checking account to an investment account. Even if it is a small amount you save each month, it's better than nothing.
