Look to Coupon Based Sites and Blogs – Did you know that many blogs and sites post free coupons that you can use on related shopping sites? Not only does this save you a lot of money, but it reminds you that coupons are still very useful! Print off a coupon or use an online coupon code from a site like JoeShopping.com and save big bucks on a favorite shirt and other accessories. Once you’ve got the coupon searching down you’ll find yourself saving a lot more money than you imagined.
Ride your Bike Instead of Driving – If your job is nearby or you are in a neighborhood where the shops that you run your errands at are not that far away, why not ride your bike as opposed to driving? Gas is very expensive right now, so instead of complaining about the rising gas costs, get your daily exercise and ride your bike. You’ll feel refreshed and proud of yourself for putting your bike to good use plus you’ll be cutting back on gas expenses simultaneously.
Get a Savings Account, Stat – If you aren’t currently saving money in some form (either via a retirement fund or a Roth RIA for example), it’s a good idea to start a savings account. Putting money aside for your future is the best thing you can do in a harsh economy. Instead of fighting the economy – tell it who’s boss.
With the presidential election coming up, the economy will definitely be affected by who ends up being president. So do your part and don’t forget to vote, because every vote counts! The economy may not change for a while, but don’t give up hope. Continue to come up with creative ways to improve the economy and you’ll feel proud of yourself for the positive efforts along the way.

Saving is always great if there is something to save. But, saving few dollars here and there during shopping can help a lot too.

Sa hirap ng buhay ngayon, kailangan talaga mautilize yung resources natin. I also use coupons and vouchers whenever I go shop. They are very useful. And also, I have a savings account which is very helpful to me when it comes to saving money because I can stop myself from withdrawing money hehe
I have to add on that if you can, get a part time job to increase your cash inflow.
