American saves a lot of money because she changed these things
Specifically, the American reports four little things that she and her partner have been doing differently for several months:
- They prepare their lunch at home and take it to work instead of eating on site. If you follow this rule four times a week, you will spend around € 182 a month and no longer € 429 - which was the case before.
- They often cook at home instead of ordering. Although the couple still go to a restaurant once a week, they only pay 195 euros instead of 585 euros per month.
- They have canceled their expensive memberships in gyms and are now training at home. This saves you around 133 euros per month.
- You have registered with a library so that you no longer have to buy expensive books. Therefore, the couple's account receives 89 euros more per month.
