11 Savvy Spending Tips for 2011: Day 10- Cut down on your bills!

Do you want to 2011 to be the year you spend less and save more? Do you want to learn to be savvy in your spending? 
I decided to kick off the New Year by sharing my top 11 tips for Frugal Living and Savvy Spending! I want to persuade you the being frugal is NOT the same as being cheap or going without. Frugality actually means "to avoid waste; using discretion; be economical".

So, for the next 11 days, I'll bring you a new tip each day. These tips are based on things I practice everyday and what makes me a "frugal" person. I don't feel I'm cheap (I sure hope not!) and we definitely do not go without. We just choose to use discretion in what we buy, avoid wasting our money, and work how to stretch that dollar as far as it can go!

I'd love to hear your thoughts or helpful tips too! Leave me a comment below if you want!

Tip #10: Be Savvy with your Spending by paying less on your bills!

One way to save some money is to try to pay less on those dreaded bills. There are a few ways to do this, and although it's not a guarantee, if you try some of these tips, you should see some savings!

1) Get rid of Late Fees: If you accidentally pay a bill late, call the company and ask to speak to billing. Explain that you have been a customer for ___ years/months and that you always pay your bills on time (if this is true). Tell them you're sorry it was late this once, but it won't become a habit. Almost 100% of the time, they will waive the late fee.

2) Get your Bills Lowered: In our house, we have all our phone, internet, and cable services through one provider. We are happy with them, but a while back, I noticed our prices had gone up over $20 a month! So, I called and was able to save $180!
Here's what to do: Call and explain that you are a loyal customer who pays their bills on time every month. You may want to add that you are happy with their service, but noticed your bills have been higher and was just wondering if there was anything they could do to help you out. It took about 2 minutes and the nice customer service rep was able to lower my bill by $30 a month for the next 6 months! That's a savings of $180!! Just be sure to be polite and truthful. If you really are thinking of switching to a cheaper provider, they may go the extra mile to keep you as a customer!

3) Save by using less: It's not rocket science and you've probably heard these tips before, but have you tried them?
*Turn your thermostat down at night or when you'll be gone all day. You'll see a savings in your monthly bill!
*Stop the dish washer when the drying cycle starts and air dry them on the counter or just by opening the dish washer door!
* Only run the washing machine or dish washer when you have a FULL load.
* Air dry your clothes when possible and only use the dryer for 5 minutes to freshen them up after they are mostly dry.
* Unplug electronics when they aren't in use! Don't leave the coffee pot turned on, the computer on, your cell phone charging, the lights on if you aren't using them! If you can't remember, plug multiple things into a strip and turn them all off at the same time!
* Cancel the expensive Movie channels (especially if you rarely use them) or the monthly movie rental service and use free codes or pay $1 at Redbox or Blockbuster Express!
* See if you can save on your phone, Internet, cable by getting a "bundle" service.
* Negotiate a cheaper cell phone plan by looking at competitor's prices and working with your company.
* If you have a wood burning fireplace, see if you can get some free wood or cut your own and use it to heat your house! We do this and it saves a ton!
* Plan your errands wisely so you aren't driving back and forth to save on gas.
* See if you can get a cheaper car insurance rate by being a safe driver.

What tips do you have for saving money on your bills?

11 Savvy Spending Tips for 2011: Day 9- Get cash back for shopping online

Do you want to 2011 to be the year you spend less and save more? Do you want to learn to be savvy in your spending? 
I decided to kick off the New Year by sharing my top 11 tips for Frugal Living and Savvy Spending! I want to persuade you the being frugal is NOT the same as being cheap or going without. Frugality actually means "to avoid waste; using discretion; be economical".

So, for the next 11 days, I'll bring you a new tip each day. These tips are based on things I practice everyday and what makes me a "frugal" person. I don't feel I'm cheap (I sure hope not!) and we definitely do not go without. We just choose to use discretion in what we buy, avoid wasting our money, and work how to stretch that dollar as far as it can go!

I'd love to hear your thoughts or helpful tips too! Leave me a comment below if you want!

Tip #9: Be Savvy with your Spending by getting cash back when shopping on the Internet!

If you're shopping online and see a great deal, like a coupon code or free shipping offer, there is a way you can make it even better! If you aren't getting cash back for your online purchases, you're missing out on free money!
There are numerous sites that will pay you back for "clicking through" their site. How and why do they do this? It's simple: the stores they list will pay them a fee when you shop. Then they share this fee with you! It's a win-win! These sites are free to join and they are easy to use! There are no mail in rebate forms or anything tricky to remember- just click through the cash back site and they'll send you your cash back!

Here's how it works:
1) Let's say I want to buy something from Kohl's.com. I could easily go directly to Kohls.com, but cash back sites may offer me 4%, 6%, 8% or more if I "click" through their site. So, instead of going to Kohls.com, I will go to ebates.com and then type in "Kohls" in the search menu or from the drop down list.
2) Once you find the store you want to shop, click on the link and you'll be directed to that site. You'll create a "tracking link", so if you make a purchase, your cash back will automatically be in your account (it may take a few days).
3) Most of the cash back sites will send you a check at certain times of the year, if you meet the minimum dollar amount. For examples, ebates.com will send a cash back payment every 3 months. However, if you earned less than $5.01 in the previous quarter, they'll carry your balance over until the next payment date. 
4) You can choose to receive a check or paypal transfer for most of these cash back sites.
5) Basically, these sites are like an online rebate- but with hardly any work! Just click through the site and make a purchase and you've done all the work you need to do in order to receive your cash back!

Now, here are my favorite sites:
ebates.com: I love ebates because they usually offer a high or competitive cash back percentage. Pay out quarterly if you have a balance of $5.01 or more. They also have double and triple days for certain stores where you'll earn even more cash back! You can get a $5 sign up bonus here.

ShopAtHome.com: Very similar to ebates. They offer payments 12 times a year, but only if you generate $20 cash back... otherwise it carries over. Get a free $5 sign up bonus here!

BigCrumbs.com: Also nice. They offer competitive cash back amounts.They offer payouts every month, as long as your have a balance of $5 or more. They also offer paypal transfer as payment.

There are many more, but if I had to choose my favorite, I'd go with ebates. However, sometimes I'll check between these cash back sites and see who offers the highest percent back for the store I plan to shop at and decide that way!

What about you? Are there any cash back sites you prefer?
