Dare to share
Sharing isn’t just caring, it’s a money saver. Remember car sharing? Why not find neighbours who work in the same area or go shopping to the same supermarket, and use one car instead of two? While you’re there, you can exploit more of the special offers and bulk buys. Finally, and this might be a hard one to accept but it’s worth considering… share the washing machine! It’s better value for money to wash a full load in your machine, but if you live on your own it might take a while, so if your neighbour’s likely to have lighter loads too, could you share?
