Make a list of the top 10 house hold items you that use the most and/or tend to cost you the most.  Begin to watch for coupons and sales on these to reduce your spending right away where it will count the most.  Also, begin to create a stock pile of these items so that you are never forced to pay full price because you ran out.

For us the household items (non-grocery) we use that cost the most that are:

  • Toilet paper
  • Baby Wipes
  • Dish Washing Detergent
  • Laundry Soap
  • Toilet Bowl Cleaner
  • Lysol Wipes
  • Bar Soap
  • Face Wash
  • Zip-lock baggies
  • Tin Foil

Spend a few minutes deciding what your “Top 10″ list is.  This easy step will help you save money right away.   Today’s the perfect day to start!

Hint: Be sure to pull your two inserts from your (or your parents) Sunday paper before it gets recycled this week!
