Money Making - Money Saving Tips for College Students - page 3

by Linda Correli

The tip I can give you is to estimate realistically your strengths and time. If it comes out that something is odd, quit your job easily and don't regret about it. However, if you are already working and making your living, not just pocket money, here are some useful tips and hints to help you save your hard-earned bucks:

  • Always look for sales and shop only at discount stores. Discipline yourself to buy everything, even small drib - drabs there. Remember to clip coupons and shop on double - coupon days.
  • Get rid of the habit to eat out too often. It will not only save you money, but also your health, as snack bars mainly serve junk food. So, cook for yourself as much as possible.
  • Go to matinees instead of evening shows and patronize movie theaters that offer students discounts.
  • Share an apartment or a house with your friends. After all it is just more fun to share your flat with someone else. The "cheapest" decision is to choose living in the dorm.
  • Try to live without a car if you can. Start leading the healthy way of life. Ride a bike. Anyway it is an excellent way to get your body exercised.
  • Buy monthly passes for whatever public transit you ride.
  • Join a credit union. Credit unions frequently offer low - interest loans.
  • When you want to buy something expensive, always ask yourself: "DO I REALLY NEED IT"?
  • Learn a saving experience from other people.
  • Repeat to yourself every morning: "I love money". Maybe they'll hear it and come to your hands. Be careful with it. Don't be too zealous. Beware of mass attacks :-)

Hope that these tips will help you make and save some money while you are in college. Good luck!
