I wasn't so sure about switching to a prepaid plan after being with a contract carrier for so long, and getting fees and charges that made no sense to me. took a deeper look at the savings and decided NET10 was for me! Now I pay half of what I was paying before and I couldn't be happier!

I have found that there are several ways to save a lot of money. Packing my own lunch instead of buying every day is a real saving, and also much healthier. I have also switched from a contract cellphone to a prepaid. The cost of my Net10 phone is about half of what I used to spend on my contract and the service is probably better. We have also stopped eating out so much. and this is a real saver

I was introduced to gourmet healthy coffee over 2 years ago, and at 50 cents a cup it was a total pleasure to make it at home, and be able to 'make' it at work too [instant coffee] and save money all day long; I stopped going to starbucks several times a month, and the new coffee coincidentally led to my not needing to eat or spend money on the monthly staff lounge membership: because i no longer wanted their coffee, my sugar cravings decreased so i no longer wanted their snacks and sweets. Additionally, I no longer wanted any alcoholic drinks whatsoever. I also was able to stop two medications for high blood pressure and anxiety. So yes, it does save to plan out and make changes. Over time, one gets accustomed to the changes and then looks back and wonders why they felt those things before were 'necessary' at the time. Good for you, thanks for sharing your tips. God Bless You and Your Family & Happy New Year. I hope that more and more people will work on paying down their debt more so than ever in the new year.
