It now seems to be every day we hear about further fuel price rises or expected increases in energy bills and with a lot of people (including myself) struggling to make ends meet we are having to re-evaluate our lifestyles to ensure we can make the payments.
My gut reaction, like a lot of people I imagine, is “how on earth am I going to afford that?” but after sitting down and thinking about things I’m a little calmer.
First off I didn’t think “How can I get more money in?” but rather “How can I make the best use of the money I’ve got?” and I’ve come up with several, rather common sense ways to stretch out the money I’ve got and I’m hoping some of these will help you out.
