With the economy suffering a hard hit due to the mighty famous coronavirus, majority of us are looking at ways to save more money. If you’re sailing on the same boat as us, then join us to learn some of the top ways to save some bucks during this difficult time.
1. Swipe left on swiggy
Whether you’re a student or a full grown adult, you have no reason to spend all that money on food delivery apps. Surprise your parents by actually eating some home food or surprise yourself and cook one of those recipes that you’ve bookmarked from months ago. Not only will it save you some money, it is also safer, hygienic and much more healthy than food prepared at restaurants.
2. Invest in refurbished phones
We get it. There’s nothing to do when you’re stuck at home and you’re tired of all the family game/movie nights and you just want to enjoy some quality “me time” on your phone or maybe binge watch on the latest TV shows. But don’t spend lavishly or get a mobile on EMI just to be able to do that. Instead, invest in a refurbished phone that will come for a much cheaper price than the original. Some Amazon renewed products even come with a 6 month seller warranty!
3. Lift that water weight
If you’re nothing like us and you actually do go to a gym to workout, but you’re unable to now, due to the virus and basic precautions against it, stay clear of expensive weights and dumbells and invest in quirky, cool water bottles to fill up and use as weights! There are plenty of choices in Amazon and Flipkart and this way you will never forget to stay hydrated during workouts.
4. Say no to cab companies
Taking any form of public or private transportation during the COVID chaos is big no-no. Not only is it expensive, it is also extremely unhygienic. Instead, it’s time to learn how to ride/drive your own vehicles in order to contain the spread of the virus. If you don’t own a vehicle, use simpler modes of transportation like cycles or bike rentals. Since you would be riding these vehicles yourself, you’d be practicing great social distancing along with saving a big amount of money on two way drives by cab companies.
5. Use ZestMoney
