$40 can go a long ways. Good for you!

In April I switch my cellular service over to Republic Wireless. Now I have unlimited talk text and 3g data for under $30 (including tax). My old bill was around $100 a month so I am enjoying the extra money. It’s more money to put towards student loans.

I’m thinking of dropping down from all inclusive talk/text/data to a pay as you go plan, so this article was good timing. What will we do with the extra money? Well we’re not wanting for much right now and don’t have any travel planned for a while, so it’s probably going to get thrown on the mortgage. All those little bits add up pretty quick over time!

I got the Cannon EOS Rebel earlier this year and I am in love. I had to talk to myself into spending that kind of money on a camera but I am so glad that I did.

(I actually found an awesome pacakage on Amazon that came with a tripod, an extra lense, extra memory card, and a carrying case.)

I have literally taken thousands of pictures in the past few months. It’s really nice to have and since I bought I feel more obligated to document more of my life in pictures!

$40 is really good amount to save per month. I myself started with 25% of my salary. So far, I am still sticking to that, which makes me happy and contented with my savings.

Oh, I love the Apple watch! $40 savings per month would totally make a big difference and buying a Kayak is a nice option too!

Awesome. Just think if you take the $480 and times it by 40 for the 40 years and then add interest to that, then the number is huge! Small things add up to big things over time. Way to go to give yourself a pay raise.

It’s crazy how such a small amount of money can amount to so much. My dad was huge into investing and over the years he’s accumulated so much. He’s the reason why I love saving money and he’s made me become a lot more thrifty as well!

This is a great way to think of it. Sadly, if I found a way to cut $40/month from my budget, I’d probably still be bad and spend it on other things instead. 🙁 I am getting better though, at least I know my naughty habits now, lol. I hope you put that $40/month to good use. 🙂

It’s amazing how small choices we make can affect our lives in such a big way. It’s a really good exercise to go through when I want to buying something… I can think of how much money I could save by not spending that $10 on something I don’t really need.
