Thursday Thrifty Tip: Home Owner's/Car Insurance


Remember those commercials when a random person comes out of the "scene" and says, "Hey, I just saved ... on my car insurance!" Well, I feel like announcing to you all, the blogging world, that I just "saved $4.73/month on my car insurance".

(Echo. Echo.) OK, most of you are thinking..."seriously you are switching car insurance for $4.73/month?" Listen...I didn't say I was thrifty and frugal for nothing. Every dollar and penny is valued in our home even if is less than $5.

But the real value is that because I'm switching my car insurance to my home owner's insurance I reap a discount...15% on my home insurance. Together I will be saving $112.50 a year on my two policies. (Now that is starting to add up!)

Being thrifty is a daily duty for me, not just something that is an afterthought. Every decision affects our household budget whether it is simply leaving a light on to more complex concepts like changing insurance policies. We make our money work for us...inside of thinking what we could do if we made more.
