Save Cash Fast - Spending Fast
Sometimes you have to save cash fast. If you are in a cash crunch this simple idea will help. Do a budget fast for a minimum of two weeks. This tactic should get some money back into your pocket immediately.
Go on a budget fast. The budget fast concept is the same as a crash weight loss diet. This is a serious way to save cash. All you have to do is stop spending. Simple right? No, not really. When I say stop spending I mean ALL spending.
Use common sense. You will be paying your bills like the house payment, utilities, etc.
However, you will not be buying groceries (unless the cupboards are COMPLETELY bare) or eating out. Get those food cans, bags of rice, frozen veggies, etc. out and get cooking! Most people are surprised at how much food they have. Some hardcore crash budget dieters don’t go food shopping until ALL of their food in the house is gone. THAT is intense. My family does this type of diet every six months or so. It is a reminder of how much abundance we have.
Once again, you must use common sense. If the kids really need milk or fresh fruit make the trip. Just remember: the idea is to use what you have on hand as much as possible.
No buying clothes, toys, books, treats, smoothies, etc. during the fast.
Some of you may feel compelled to BUY, BUY, BUY things out of sheer boredom. I have been there. Fight it! Once you have made it through a proper budget fast you will see things in a new way. Most people realize how fortunate they really are. Use this hardcore tactic to save cash fast! Good Luck!
