How you can save more money every month

- When you have worked out a budget plan, stick to it. However, it should be reviewed regularly and adjusted as circumstances change
-
- In addition to budgeting for food, rent or mortgage payments and telephone bills, etc, each spouse should have a certain amount that he or she can spend as he or she pleases
