I view each month’s bill – whether it be from the water company, the electric utility, or the natural gas provider – as a way to gauge how well I am doing in my efforts to both conserve energy and save money. How much money do I get to keep in my bank account this month? Did I use less power than last month?

This was back before computers, and we didn’t have a calculator so I spent a full day doing arithmetic (because of course nothing balanced right off)! Save your ‘savings’ You aren’t saving money if you spend less on something and buy something else with the ‘savings’!

I remember learning something about saving money on books I want to share with you : the library has copies and you can check them out.And teachers have extra copies. Check with your student union or library to find out which computer labs allow you to print for free and what the daily limits on free printing are.
