Hello Family How does a cheapskate/frugal person prepare for unexpected bills? Bills that you never knew were coming. I got an energy bill yesterday that was $657.00. that was very unexpected. Being a cheapskate who already lives in an expensive place like New York. I went on the level budget billing plan with my energy bill. Which means every month I know what my bill will be so I can budget according. Until this bill came yesterday. The energy company says that They made an error, so I have to pay them an extra $657.00. This not only pissed me off it made ne depressed. I hate spending money.
So, what do you do with unexpected bills. First if you can save extra money somewhere for the unexpected. If you can. You can also call the company you owe to see if they can work with you in lowing your payment. If you can charge the payment and pay off the credit card as soon as possible. At least by charging it gives you room to make smaller payments on the bill. Call to find out if you really owe the bill some companied do make mistakes you know. See if you can cut back in other areas just this once to pay the bill and it all depends on how much the bill is. Sell some stuff if you have it or pawn shop it until to get the money you need.
These are just a few basic suggestions for you when you have unexpected bills to pay
Have A great Cheap Cheetah Day & Save That Money!
