100 ideas to help you keep a little green in your pocket. Followed by some other money adventures.  

1. Get a piggy bank! One of the easiest ways to start building a savings is to save your change. You would be surprised how fast change can build, not to mention if you find a few cents laying ground. I have personally saved over 200 in 6 months a couple of times. The biggest factors in saving this way is your abilty to use cash and the fact you won't be gaining and interest.

2. Stash those bills. I have heard of people saving one time of bill every time they get change. I decided to give this a try and save all my ones, nothing big but a start. I'm loving this idea because it's now a little game for me to play against myself and build up some cash. Once i  get to a set mark i will take it to the bank and put into my savings and actually gain some interest.

 3. Get rid on one service or subscription. We all have one we could cut out. It might be the cable, land phone line, or maybe even a magazine subscription. If you say no i need them all look a little bit harder see if you really need them. There are many ways to avoid cable. I personally use the TV company websites, netflix instant stream, and sites like Hulu.com to watch the shows i enjoy. With hulu and the TV networks websites you won't be right up to date on shows but you will save money comnpared to cable or satelite service cost.
