Money Saving Tips at Google Tip Jar

Google has set up a site called Tip Jar,  to gather money-saving tips in one place and allow visitors to vote and rank them in order of usefulness. The most popular tips will rise to the top of the list.  And users can submit tips to the lists as well.

Some tips are better than others, but you never know where a good idea may come from…Google’s Tip Jar breaks down tips by categories, which include finance, shopping, food, vacation, family and others.  A sample of some of the more popular tips include:

• “Go to the grocery store with your belly full. You won’t buy too many things because you just ain’t hungry.”
•  ”Utilize online bill pay with your bank. It keeps you in much closer contact with your money, as you can keep a very close eye on your balance and be in much less danger of overdrafting. It saves you money on stamps and paper checks.”
•  ”Buy a flask and carry your coffee/tea to work with you. Coffee and tea only costs pennies to make yourself, but costs $1 or more elsewhere.”
• “Eat out one fewer time each month. If it costs you $25 to eat out, but only $5 to eat in, then the $20 you save each month allows you to almost completely fund a $500 emergency savings account.”
