Adopt These 33 Shopping Habits To Save Big And Never Go Broke Again (6 of 7)

Wait for the sale

We understand how hard it can be for you to glance upon some apparel that looks as if it was custom-made for you and then leave the store or shut the tab without buying it. But this is only in the best interest of your finances. If you hold your excitement of bringing it home with you for some time, you can have the same thing for a better price.

Buy things during the off-season

As boring as it may be to look through winter wear during the scorching summer heat, you will give yourself a pat on the back when their prices double as the year nears its end. Keeping remaining stock safe incurs cost and sellers are often willing to do away with them by offering at attractive prices.

Rent things you need for just one day

The sleek, sequined gown you are thinking of getting to grab the eyeballs of the best man at your sister’s wedding will forever rest in your wardrobe after that night. You can’t wear the same dress to all the other weddings you have to attend the same year and drive all the fun out of them for yourself. Ever thought about getting such one-time-use purchases on rent? You can save over a third of its cost and it will still serve its purpose just the same.

Pay dollar store a visit

Turn on your phone’s GPS and locate the nearest dollar store at once. You’ll find there a wide assortment of items at prices surprisingly lesser than what you are charged by retail outlets.

Don’t believe us? Pay a visit and you will be cursing yourself for ignoring them all the while.

Do not buy if it doesn’t fit you

Seriously. What is the point of buying a dress that looks gorgeous on a mannequin but you can’t even get into let alone making you feel like the most beautiful girl ever? Stop this weird obsession with buying clothes the size you desire to be. Having some of the most expensive clothes a size smaller isn’t the way to motivate oneself to diet or exercise.
