It's very rewarding at the end. My girlfriend and I drastically cup back on going out to eat, and even though sometimes we think "30 bucks for dinner isn't that bad", if we save that $30 every week we have a lot of money!

Little expenses like this can add up quickly over the years. Another one to watch about fees- the home mortgage lender. They want you to set-up some fast pay or easy pay account for a fee. It's the same thing as online banking, if you set it up for automatic payments. Save your money and do it yourself. I finally canceled my data plan with At&t and saved $30 a month.

When i announced i would cancel due to the price, they said they could give me a $5 monthly "credit" due to the fact i was a "loyal customer," and on top of that the kind rep pointed out i could also save $3 a month more if i dropped long distance. (I use calling cards and my cell phone for that.) So that was my feel-good event of the week. well, i was pleased as punch when i staved off a $5 monthly increase on my AT&T combined phone/Internet bill.
