\nMinimise your waste<\/h2>\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.musicmagpie.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/food-waste-.jpeg\")
<\/a><\/p>\nDo you often have leftovers after meals or find out-of-date food in your cupboards? If so, you might save some extra cash by changing up your waste habits.<\/p>\n
Try to plan your meals in advance so you don\u2019t overspend and buy more than you need. And if you\u2019re still left with extra food after your meal, pop it in a container and have it as a meal another day.<\/p>\n
This will reduce the amount of food left to go off and save you from using up your food faster, as you\u2019ll keep the leftovers you usually throw away. If you\u2019re buying less and using up all of your food rather than binning it, you\u2019ll save a fair chunk of money each month.<\/p>\n
As an added bonus, minimising your waste will also help the environment, so it\u2019s a win-win!<\/p>\n
Ditch the clutter for cash<\/h2>\n
Have lots of unwanted items cluttering your home? Make a promise to let go of the junk and sell it for cash! If you\u2019re looking for New Year financial resolutions, this one will certainly help to boost your bank balance.<\/p>\n
UK households are sitting on an average of over \u00a3800 of unused tech, so if you\u2019ve got a drawer full of old phones or a few tablets that you don\u2019t use anymore, trade them in and pocket the money!<\/p>\n
And it\u2019s not just tech that you can sell for cash; you can get rid of unwanted books, CDs and DVDs too. Simply send your unwanted tech or entertainment items to musicMagpie and get paid the same day we receive them – it\u2019s that easy!<\/p>\n
You\u2019ll need to keep up the good work to make sure your home is clutter free all year round. You can do this by having bi-monthly clean-outs to make sure you\u2019re not unknowingly hoarding unwanted items.<\/p>\n
Try out different transport methods<\/h2>\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.musicmagpie.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/cycle-to-work.jpg\")
<\/a><\/p>\nIf you\u2019re searching for some New Year money-saving tips, looking into your current transport and researching cheaper alternatives is an excellent place to start. While this might not apply to everyone, you could find that you\u2019re spending more than you need to get around.<\/p>\n
For drivers, check your local public transport; is there a bus, train or tram route that works out cheaper than filling up your tank? If you\u2019re looking to stop paying for your commute altogether, could you walk or cycle instead?<\/p>\n
You\u2019ll be surprised just how much you can save by making a switch up to your usual transport!<\/p>\n
Shop refurbished<\/h2>\n
No matter how many money-saving techniques you use over the year, you\u2019re bound to buy a few new things here and there. So why not add purchasing to your money-saving New Year resolutions?<\/p>\n
Try making a conscious decision to shop refurbished or second hand and see how much money you can save! You can buy second hand books, CDs, DVDs and even more expensive items like refurbished phones and refurbished tech for much less than what you\u2019d pay for them new.<\/p>\n
And if you can\u2019t afford to buy refurbished tech outright, there\u2019s another cheap option you can consider\u2026 renting! You can rent refurbished tech like iPhone models, MacBook devices and even tablets on the musicMagpie Store.<\/p>\n
Buying refurbished is a cheaper way of getting the products you want for a better price, while renting is another great way of getting amazing tech for affordable monthly payments if you don\u2019t plan on keeping your device.<\/p>\n
Swap the gym for alternative workouts<\/h2>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Getting in your daily dose of exercise is important to maintain a healthy lifestyle, but you don\u2019t need to pay out for a gym membership to keep fit!<\/p>\n
Make a New Year financial resolution to swap out your gym workouts for at-home workouts instead, and when the weather gets warmer, try some outdoor activities too.<\/p>\n
There are plenty of free workout videos and tutorials you can follow in the comfort of your home, and it doesn\u2019t cost anything to go for a jog and get some fresh air!<\/p>\n
If you\u2019re determined to save some money in the new year and don\u2019t mind working out at home instead, you\u2019ll be able to pocket those monthly payments you\u2019d usually pay out to your gym.<\/p>\n
