Saving money – now there’s one we can all relate to. It’s the reason we’re all here – to learn how to live well with less money spent and more in our pockets. Whether you’re saving for retirement, a house or even a handbag, it’s a goal that if carefully aimed for can be extremely rewarding.
Starting today, Savings.com, the leading destination for coupons, tips and money saving tricks, is launching a new initiative called The Savings Pledge. Their goal: to help consumers save $1 BILLION dollars! Wow, that’s a boat load of savings! And you know what’s even crazier – that to date Savings.com has already helped consumers save more than $200 million! Amazing!
And the great news is that you can join in this awesome movement too! The first step is to take the pledge by going here to “like” NorCalCouponGal on Facebook and click on the Savings Pledge tab on the left:
Fill out your goals and your personal savings plan. Feel free to share it on your Facebook wall to let others now how you’re getting savvy with your spending 😉 And voila! You’ve just taken the first step towards being smarter with your money and controlling your savings to afford the things you want. I should also note that Savings Pledgers will also be privy to special deals and offers from Savings.com – so you’ll definitely want to sign up 😉
Today also marks the official beginning of my becoming a 2011 Savings.com Deal Pro! We Deal Pro’s are leading experts on all things shopping and saving and we’re here to help you reach whatever savings goal you might have. As a promise to be smarter with my own spending, and more savvy with my hard earned dollars, I’ve taken the Savings Pledge and I commit to saving a set amount each week through couponing, sale shopping, and other tips we’ll reveal as this series continues. My immediate goal – a little mad money for my trip to Las Vegas later this month 😉
And that’s just for starters! Each week you can expect to see a new way we can all reduce our OOP or revamp ways of doing things in order to save us money. So stay tuned and let’s help Savings.com beat their $1 billion savings mark!
