We all need to be creative in budgeting our household expenses these days as the cost of living is on the rise. Everyone now has to tighten their belts a little more and start budgeting.
But how? To help navigate and give you a roadmap, our financial wellbeing partner, Salary Finance have created the G.U.I.D.E which stands for:
- Groceries
- Utilities
- Insurance
- Debt
- Energy
Inside the G.U.I.D.E, you'll find:
- A summary of government schemes and support available to give you money back or provide discounts - that could be on anything from Council Tax to Energy bills
- Ideas for how to reduce expenses and shop smarter
- Ways to put money back in your pocket that you may not have considered including consolidating high-cost debt
