With the summer heat comes the temptation to splurge, but keeping your finances cool is equally important. Here are some tips to help you save money during the summer months:
1. Grow your own fruit, veg and herbs
Start a small garden or grow produce on your windowsill to save money and promote sustainability.
2. Host potluck parties
Instead of dining out, host potluck gatherings with friends and family so you can enjoy a variety of dishes without breaking the bank.
3. Take advantage of free events and dining schemes
Keep an eye out for free community events for good entertainment without the hefty price tag. Lots of places also offer schemes where children can eat for free or £1 during the school holidays. You can find a list of participating brands here.
4. Keep your home cool
Close curtains during the hottest part of the day to block out sunlight, reducing the need to use fans which can be costly.
5. Register for Housing Perks
A free app exclusive to VIVID customers that offers discounts on hundreds of brands and shops.
