Are you in the market for new appliances, water heater or HVAC system?
Check with you local gas, electric, and water utilities before buying major appliances. They often offer rebates for buying efficient models. This also applies to replacement windows and additional insulation.
Did you just get a big tax refund?
Adjust your tax withholding if you’re getting large tax refunds and use the increased take home pay for savings and investing during the current year, rather than next.
Never, ever, give the government an interest-free loan.
There are many tips that can help you save on your air travel needs. Here’s a quick one…
Avoid flying on Sunday nights, Monday mornings, and Thursday and Friday nights because those are popular travel days and those flights fill up first. You’re more likely to find better deals on Saturdays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays.
As summer approaches and your central air conditioning system comes out of hibernation, be sure to replace the air filter.
This is a very simple procedure. A clogged air filter will greatly reduce air flow and increase your energy costs.
