10 Easy Ways to save up to 500 This Month ...

Smart shopping can cut your bills by 20%! Keep an eye on the prices of foods you eat a lot, and take advantage of buy one get one free offers. I stopped buying tones of food that I do not really eat that much and that ends up in the garbage a week later anyway, such as too much fruit, veggies and bread.
