Ok it might sound a bit weird, but sometimes a good way to save money is to buy something new. The meaning of this, lets says you have an old car and you spend a fortune in repair. All the money you spent into your old car could’ve been saved to buy a new one. You know that if you have to go and try to buy used parts for your car that is older than 10 years. The parts will cost you a lot of money… if you can find them. And if you can’t, then you’ll have no choice but to go to the dealer and the parts might cost you more than twice the price.

But in these hard times, it’s not easy to do so. And with so many people losing their jobs, buying new is just not considered. We are trying to preserve what we have. The best thing to do in these times would be to go over everything you have and cut out the things you can do without. But what is essential?  Make sure that you have enough to eat, a place to live, clothes to wear. That’s it.

You can also consider taking the bus instead of using your old money sink car.  This can be for everything else you use everyday, not just your car

Only buying new stuff will keep you from paying expensive repairs.  The concept of buying new only is true. A money saver in fact since it keeps you away from the repair shops. Your hard earned money will stay in your pocket.  When you buy a brand new house, you keep your head clear of the worries of buying an older one. It is new so you know you will not have to spend a dime for repairs, at least for a few years.   Changing the way we do things is a must in order to save money.  It is similar to changing the way we eat in order to lose weight.

Are you able to pay cash for everything you buy in order to get away from credit cards? You should seriously give it a try.   A lot of simple changes can also save you money, for example starting a small vegetable garden.

Add them all together and multiply by 12 to give you an idea of how much you’d save in a whole year.   Do it you’ll be shocked, the result will definitely  ring bells in your head.
