What’s Gotta Stay

I enjoy reading financial advice blogs that started popping up throughout the web.  I am not talking about the ones that teach you how to pick a stock or timing your investments, rather those that teach you to be more frugal and to use some financial sense.  As a family we do fairly well in this respect, but I always think there is room for improvement.

I received a link today to an article I enjoyed covering the idea of timing your regular purchases to coincide with the most likely savings.  From the article:

Thanks to online coupons, price-comparison search engines and reward memberships, savvy shoppers can pay less than full price on any day that ends in “y.” But depending on what you’re planning to buy, some days of the week may yield better bargains than others.

Covering a variety of purchases from airline tickets to entertainment, groceries and even when to gas up your car, these tips rank high on my list of good common sense items to incorporate into your routines.  Give it a look see and perhaps grade how well you are currently doing and where you might pick up a tip or two to improve.
