I would like to invite people to share some of their tips/techniques they have come across to save some money. For e.g., i would like to share my banking experience to save some money. I always use the internet banking most of the times to avoid direct visits to bank for most of my day to day requirements. It saves my energy, money, of course Time! which is very precious for everyone. Whether it is get check my transactions, requesting a check book or DD, even to pay for my bills, to manage my credit card etc etc. Some people fear to use internet banking. But i would recommend as far as you pay attention to safety/security in handling you need not worry. What you say people? Any more ideas?

I am not too much good in saving money and all. still i can say try to set aside a part of salary for savings. also set up a fund at home for emergency. do not buy what you can avoid.

That's a very good habit and very essential to keep some money aside to tackle emergencies.

Paying bills are good idea. But beware once auto debiting happens it's very difficult to get it back even if vendor debits higher amount. I have registered all my bills to pay through net banking but i do pay manually in my control i don't allow vendors to auto debit

Yes, online banking will really will save our time, and energy etc.. etc. And along with that, you will be provided some discount also by paying your bills through online, most of the merchandiser will allow you to pay online, will have attractive discount. And also, we can do it anything during online, will really save our time, and also, we can pay the same at the last minutes also, this will also be an advantages to us.. For example, if you need to pay your utility bill, if you need to pay in person, you supposed to pay couple of days before, but if you need to pay through online, you can pay on the due date, Due to this will save the interest for the same also.. Have a good day.
