Here's my 6 ideas:

1. Create a budget and stick to it

This will help you track your spending and identify areas where you can cut back.

2. Cut out unnecessary expenses

Take a look at your spending habits and identify any expenses that are not essential. These could be subscriptions or memberships that you don't use regularly, or impulse purchases that you can live without.

3. Use coupons and discounts

Look for coupons and discounts on the items you regularly purchase. You can often find discounts on groceries, clothing, and other everyday items.

4. Save on utilities

There are a few simple ways to save on your utility bills. For example, you can turn off lights and appliances when they are not in use, and use energy-efficient light bulbs and appliances.

5. Shop around for better deals

Don't be afraid to shop around for the best deals on the things you need. This could mean comparing prices at different stores, or looking for sales and clearance items.

6. Reduce your debt

High levels of debt can be a significant drain on your finances. Consider ways to reduce your debt, such as by making extra payments on your loans or credit cards, or by consolidating your debts into a single loan with a lower interest rate.

Goal setting is a useful tool to help you achieve your financial goals.
One of the most important things to remember when setting goals is that they should be SMART.
S = Specific: Write down what you want, who it's for, when it's due and how much you want to save.

M = Measurable: How do you know whether or not your goal has been met? How do you measure progress in achieving your goals? How do you know if your progress is good enough?

A = Attainable: You need to know that it's possible for you to achieve this goal. It needs to be challenging but not beyond your capabilities or resources.

R = Realistic: This means that the goal should be something within reach, which will help keep you motivated throughout the entire process.

Saving is something that most of us want to do, but don’t. We just don’t think about it. Setting goals for saving can help you get started on the path to financial freedom.
