We all understand the importance of saving money, but we also know that we have to enjoy our lives in the here and now while we can. We also have to balance work, family, and our health. It’s a challenge for most of us, for sure, but there are many ways you can maintain your net worth without sacrificing your health and happiness.
Today’s tips can help!
Do you have a party, function, or event that leaves you with the need to dress to the nines? If so, consider renting a beautiful party dress or jumpsuit from One Wear Freedom. By renting, you can save potentially hundreds of pounds off the cost of an outfit you may only wear once. Plus, you’ll enjoy the added benefit of not cluttering up your closet!
Have you ever wondered why some fruits and vegetables were more expensive in January than in June? This is because, most often, your grocery buys these foods locally when they are in season instead of from other countries. Get to know what’s available seasonally. The vegetarian society explains that May is a great month for strawberries, lettuce, and radishes (all the makings of a fabulous strawberry salad) while September brings sweetcorn, cabbage, and tomatoes to your plate.
Although it might sound like a conflict of interest, sometimes spending more money can actually save you money in the long run. Grocery delivery service is a great example of this. When you order your groceries online, it’s easier to stick to a budget, and you might make more conscientious purchases.
Healthcare costs in the UK have jumped tremendously since 2019, according to data compiled by Statista. As an individual, you may be able to save some money by keeping your medical records when you visit a new healthcare provider. This may save you from having to undergo a test that you’ve already taken. A quick tip here is to access your online health portal and download that webpage from Chrome as a PDF; this way, you can show your new provider your records directly from your phone, even if you don’t have access to Wi-Fi.
One of the best ways to take care of your health can be downloaded (often for free) and kept in your pocket. Prevention lists many different health apps that you can use to exercise, monitor your menstrual cycle, and lose weight.
There are many different ways to monetize your healthy habits. You might, for example, coach people on how to take care of their own health. Another idea is to start a blog and register with brands you love as an affiliate marketing agent. This puts you on a direct path to other consumers who might be interested in what you have to say. If you go this route, make sure to write a business plan so that you have a game plan on how you structure your business, how you plan to make money, what you’ll do with it, and even how you plan to market yourself.
There are many ways that you can take control of your health, and most of them don’t require a hefty investment. Give yourself permission to enjoy your life. You never know when something as simple as showing your doctor a PDF of your health records, downloading a free app, or deciding where to splurge might save (or even make) you money.

Sustainability means avoiding the depletion of natural resources to maintain a
sustainable ecological balance.
Yes, this definition is broad, and many could debate what is sustainable and what
is not. To put it simply, as it is a subjective definition, we will try to explain our
vision of sustainability.
Sustainability is more and more important to all of us.
Give a second life to your everyday items.
If you do not need or want any item anymore and it is still functioning, someone
else will be happy to have it.
By giving your item a second life, you prevent the creation of additional waste and
production of another product.
On Partage, you can give a second life to your unwanted item and get rewarded.
The first thing that comes to our mind when we think about sustainability is
consumption. Getting to know how the items you buy are produced is an important
step. To do so, you can:
Most of the items we throw away could be repaired.
In our fast-paced world, people tend to throw away and replace rather than reuse
and repair. This is one of the biggest problems we face. When we throw things
away and buy new things, there are several problems:
There are a few places and websites that allow you to repair your items such as:
You could save up to 30% of your energy bill on average.
One of the most important tips to be more sustainable is to use less energy in
general. There are numerous ways you can save energy (and money) by turning
off unused appliances, turning off your Wi-Fi box when you are out of your house is a good example of what you could do in addition to the obvious steps.
In our modern world, we need less and less paper in our everyday lives. If you still
receive paper version of your bills, bank statements and others, going paperless
will save tons of paper in a year.
Food waste is one of the biggest issues in our world. Food is wasted at the source (by producers) and at the destination (by us – customers).
There is some progress being made on the producer side. Even if it’s taking quite a long time. But there is something we can our on our end prevent it from happening.
You can for example:
Sustainable fashion was very exclusive a while ago. It is not the case anymore. Please find a list of sustainable brands where you can shop knowing that you participate in the preservation of the environment:
You can also find discounted sustainable clothing on Partage with discounts on retailers such as One Wear Freedom with 10-20% off! What's not to love!
