Life Her Way Of ....


                                                        
                                                       Hello My Cheap Cheetah Family

Happy July 1st! I know it's only June 30th, but I'm ahead of schedule. Anyway, I came across this woman's video on how she cruises on the cheap. It's a clever way to go on practically free cruises. I thought about trying to do this myself. Not the whole living on a cruise part, but the next time I try cruising, I'll try and get the price as cheap as possible. I see she only sticks to certain cruise ship lines. That's alright by me if I can go cheap like she does. See how much her expenses are when she cruises. It's a good way to have fun while still sticking to a budget. So, what are your cheapskate vacation plans for the summer?

Bills

 

                                                     

                                                      Hello, My Cheap Cheetah Family

Bills, Bills, Bills want to kill a cheapskate/frugal person really quick? Give them bills to pay. I got my property taxes along with some medical bills, and add a visa bill to that all-in-one day. It was slowly killing me to write checks, and I mean big ones, too. To all these people, and have nothing to show for it in return. besides making me say when I pay bills, it also gives me a wake-up call and forces me to see if anything would happen to my partner's income, can I live on just my income alone? The answer would probably be not. I don't make enough from my pension or even with social security to cover my bills. Thank God for my savings. I've been a savaholic since I was 14 years old and had my first job. I got kind of obsessive with saving at one point, walking to the bank just to put $5 in my account when I was younger. and as I got older, it was whatever my part-time job gave me, I saved and did without. Money was like a security blanket for me throughout my life. Anyway, make sure to check all your bills and see that they're correct, even your grocery bills; the cashiers make mistakes too. And let the bills you have to pay be a lesson to you, ask yourself what I can cut back on, and do I have enough saved if something happens, if my income is reduced for any reason. Something to think about, right?

Expensive Month


                                                         Hello, My Cheap Cheetah Family

Why is the summer always so expensive? It's not even the middle of June, and I have already run over budget with stuff. Birthdays are in June, vacation time, and extra bills are in June. June is getting to suck when it comes to being a cheapskate. The only advice I would give myself is that if any extra money comes my way, take some of the money and put it aside for the expensive summer months. Because you know things happen in the summer, birthdays, weddings, family vacations, and other unexpected stuff. What I've been doing is downsizing and trying to sell off stuff that I have collected through the years to get extra money. I do surveys, but they take too long to pay out.  It takes 5 years to get to the level of $20 to get a check. Well, you know what I mean( hahah)

I'm still rolling my coins up for the saving summer months, but other than that. I try and find ways I can cut back, but there is only so much you can cut, right? Let a cheapskate like me know if you have any thoughts about what or how you save for the expensive summer months.
