✂️ How To Cut the EXTREME From Your Budget (& Our Radical Middle Recs)
1. Don’t save now to end up paying more later.
We know opening the electric bill gives you full-body shudders, but PLEASE, don’t turn off your AC entirely. It can have devastating effects on your home if you live in a humid climate.
Instead of cutting out necessary functions, consider doing a free electricity audit with your provider. They’ll tell you where you’re leaking energy and give you advice on how to reduce your usage moving forward. Now that’s the radical middle.
2. Don’t overspend time trying to save money
Spending a little time to save money is our life motto, but we know our limits. Rather than toiling away for hours clipping coupons for things you don’t need, try websites like Ibotta or Rakuten, which give cash back for what you’ve purchased.
3. If you’re addicted to DIY, HOLD UP.
We all love it when a Pinterest DIY succeeds, but there’s a tension to hold, and if you’re DIYing everything (yes, even your toilet paper holder) then it’s time to take a step back and reclaim your time.
Practice the radical middle by outsourcing or sticking to what you ENJOY ❤️
