How you can save up to $2,000 a year

Making just a few changes in your everyday life could add up, maybe even up to $2,000 a year or more. An article posted on CNN Money gives some good tips on simple ways to save you some cash. Some of these include:

-Replacing your old washer and dryer with more energy efficient ones (such as the Energy Star Models)
-Using cash instead of credit for groceries and clothes
-Getting lower car insurance.

Can you think of anything you could do to save on your bills? Maybe turning off lights, using energy efficient light bulbs, making sure your refrigerator is running well, or unplugging or turning off your computer when not in use. If you really think about it for a minute you may be able to save more money then you realize. An extra $2,000 a year sounds pretty good for only making a few minor changes. Although, buying a new washer and dryer or other energy efficient appliances won’t save you right off the bat, they will wind up paying for themselves in the long run.

Nice tricks!Thanks for sharing. Taking walks or riding the bicycle instead of driving the car can save us a lot of money too. Setting the timer of or TV sets just before we doze off every night helps too.
