What, the
hectic life of being a mommy is getting to you? Is the daily life of working
all day, chasing after toddlers in the afternoon, and dealing with a hungry
husband around dinner time not as simple as you thought it might be? Well, you
are not alone. Being a mother is tough and hectic job (well worth it though, of
course), and with all the expenses you have throughout the month it may seem
difficult to take control of your life. Well, using these 5 tips for a busy mom
you will be able to take grasp of your entire life, instead of just your
business.
Busy mom with millions of no-name things |
1.
Shop Online
Shopping online is something every
mommy needs to indulge in. First and foremost, shopping online means not having
to leave the house - which may seem impossible these days. Simply lay in bed
with your laptop and browse the web. You will find a lot more at online stores
than you ever will in a store, which is also another bonus. The last bonus of
shopping online? The amazing savings you won’t find at the local store. Many
online stores constantly have special deals and savings on top of regularly
lowered prices, which means you can save a TON of money. Try out some of these
coupons and see what all the buzz is about: Zulily coupons that help you save $5 off
purchases over $75 and special Target coupons
offering $5 off orders over $50 plus FREE shipping.
2.
Rack Up the Coupons
If you prefer to shop in stores or
don’t have internet connections to shop online, there is one easy way where you
can save money: by using coupons. You can easily find coupons in your local
newspaper, and some stores will even have their coupons towards the entrance to
the store. Sign up for their mailing list and you can get exclusive coupons and
savings.
3.
Buy in Bulk
Some items are best bought in bulk.
Some of these items include toiletry items, baby food, other baby related
items, shampoos, and food. Try and find special offers that have discounted
prices on items you need. Make sure not to buy items in bulk that don’t benefit
you (such as tons of makeup or food you don’t necessarily like).
4.
Find Fun, Free Things to do
If you want to have a fun time with
your kids without having to spend money, there are many places you can go. Try
taking a trip down to the beach, the local museum, or even the nearby park for
some fun, free, and easy fun. Plus, it will tire them out so they are ready for
bed and you can have a break!
5.
Stick to a Budget
At the beginning of the month, put
together a well constructed budget and actually stick to it. Note how much
money you make a month and how much you have to spend. Also jot down what items
you will be buying to accurately calculate your budget.
Let’s try and be a great mommy!
