More and more people are unemployed for one reason or another and are looking for ways to save money. Many are cutting back on spending, starbucks coffee is not so important everyday. Reducing the amount of cellular plans or cable television packages. Calling your carriers can help to save you money by just asking. Verizon cellular gives a 10% discount on your bill for upto 6 months. Some are choosing to drive less if it is an option and hold meetings online. The most popular thing is cutting coupons from stores you use or from manufacturers directly. Some stores like Target give you an extra 10% if you use their card linked to your own bank account, like a target only debt card. USing large wholesale stores like Sam's and BJ's is popular too. BJ's will take coupons and give people their own store coupons as well. For large families this is the best of both worlds, buying in bulk to save money and multiple coupons can be used.
The last thing you can review is your health insurance. If you are paying $100-$150+ a month you may want to shop for an individual health insurance plan versus a company plan. Many group plans look the same for individuals to buy for much less because they can be selective at the moment and take healthy low cost people to insure. When the new health national health regulations are imposed which is coming, sooner rather than later, all pre-existing conditions will have to be accepted. You can expect prices will increase but those in the system will more than likely protected from large increases, grandfathering you in. GoldenRule, also known as United HealthOne, is United Healthcare that is sold to companies for individuals. Florida has been one their top selling states for several years becuase of the amount of plans they offer, network available and of course PRICE! If you are not covered by them or have not checked the pricing in awhile you should do so. Blue Cross & Blue Shield is very popular too but many complain of large rate increases once they have signed up. So check for yourself,

and save your family a little more cash.
If you do have some additional money by cutting back take time to check out the theme parks in Florida. Many like Walt Disney, Epcot, Sea World, and Busch Gardens are offering packages that are the lowest we have seen in awhile for Florida Residents. Many of the parks are pushing annual passes for a few extra dollars since park attendance is down.
