12 Ways You Can Save Money While Living Paycheck to Paycheck
Trying to save money while living paycheck to paycheck can feel futile because it seems like you're leaner and leaner every month—and honestly, that's somewhat true. Give it a month or two, however, and your finances even out gradually but steadily. You have to cut corners. More than that, you have to deny yourself items and opportunities that you desperately want, but you can't indulge. That's often the most challenging aspect of learning how to stop living paycheck to paycheck. Nobody wants to give up their wants, but the sacrifice is worth it once you're no longer down to the bare bones at the end of each pay cycle.

Couponing in Canada
Canadians can be extreme couponers too! The first thing I’m going to discuss is where to find coupons Tearpad coupons are found on coupon boards or near the product in store. The best coupon boards are typically found at Real Canadian Superstore, in my experience. It is important to remember to only take as many coupons as you need from these to make sure everyone else gets some. Insert coupons are coupon booklets found in some newspapers with flyers. Print coupons can be found on various websites (including save.casmartsource.ca and websaver.ca) and also sometimes included in promotional emails directly from companies. The important thing to remember with printable coupons is photocopying is NOT allowed because each coupon needs to have a unique pin in order for stores to be reimbursed. Demo/ rep coupons can be found when products are having a demo and often times there will be coupons available. These typically can be found at Walmart on the weekends.

Life in Plastic Is NOT Fantastic
We all are aware of the big problem we have: plastic pollution. There are many articles, books, campaigns about plastic consumption, but very few do something.

Environmentally Friendly Alternatives for Everyday Items. Top Story - June 2018.
Pela Phone Cases Most people have a phone case on their phone. Personally, I have gone through several during the six years I have been using a phone case. Most phone cases are not recycled and I am not sure if they could be either. Because they are an item that you will use for five years tops but can stay in the environment for up to 1,000 years; I would suggest getting a compostable phone case. Pela cases offer a compostable phone case option for Android and iPhone users. Although they do not have too many options, raising the demand for compostable phone cases will bring more options. If more people support these types of companies, more like them will pop up. Hopefully, a day will come where there will be as many or more environmentally conscious than there are unconscious.
