how to cut down your commuting costs

Whether we’re headed to work, school or other commitments, sky-high gas prices and inflation mean many of us are facing regular trips that are more expensive than ever.

While there’s not much you can do about prices these days, there are few steps you can take to save on your commute. Here are some ideas:

plan your trips

If you know you’re heading into the office, you can plan errands around your in-office day(s) and stop at destinations like the grocery

store, bank or pet store, on your way home. Running your errands on days that you’ll already be out driving can save you time in your schedule and may even save you money at the gas pump.

try out alternative transit or carpooling

In good weather, you may try riding a bike to work to avoid filling up at the pump and enjoying the health benefits at the same time. But in the later fall and winter months when that may not be an option, try carpooling with colleagues – this can help you save on gas, and give you

some great company to enjoy the ride with.

take advantage of apps

As long as you use them hands free, mapping or GPS apps can help you find the most efficient – and therefore cheapest – route. You can also try telematics – a usage-based program that follows your driving habits over time and tailors your insurance premiums accordingly. Apps like these, such as Aviva Journey, are a simple way to reward yourself with cash saved for staying safe on the road.

5 tips for dealing with inflation

Four in 10 Canadians report that money is a daily concern for them, and one third of low-income Canadians admit to worrying about money almost constantly. With inflation at its highest level in more than 30 years, it’s more

important than ever for us to become financially literate. Here are 5 money saving tips to help keep you afloat.

build a budget

The first step towards financial security is to create a budget

that you can stick to. Your budget should track all of your income and expenses, including food, housing, transportation and entertainment. If your monthly expenses exceed your income, you’ll either need to cut back on spending or find ways to bring more money in.

cut back on frivolous spending

It’s become a bit of a cliché to advise people to stop buying takeout coffees to save money. And it’s true: with tax and tip a coffee can easily cost $5 to $10. But don’t make yourself miserable. If that cup of java is

a daily indulgence that makes you happy, look for other small ways to cut back that can add up to big savings.

avoid high-interest payments

Credit cards are a handy way to pay for things and can even earn you cash back or other rewards. But the interest rate on credit cards is very high, often 20 per cent or more. And, if you don’t pay off your full balance monthly, the interest is charged from the date of purchase.

If you can’t pay your credit card bills in full, see if you qualify for a line of credit. These have much lower interest rates so you can start paying down your debt.

use coupons

Using coupons is a great way to lower the cost of staple items such as

groceries, diapers, personal hygiene products or to splurge on an occasional fast-food treat.

In addition to the printed coupons that come in the mail or newspapers, there are numerous online resources for coupon clipping.

shop on sale

Hold off on purchasing bigger ticket items until they go on sale. Most retailers have recurring sales promotions on certain items. A sales associate may be able to let you know when the next cycle will start. And make note of upcoming seasonal sale periods such as Black Friday and Cyber Monday.

ABC Life Literacy Canada’s Money Matters program offers free workbooks, activities and workshops to help Canadians better manage their finances. Learn more at abcmoneymatters.ca. ■

maximize your small space

Unless you’re living in a seven-bedroom mansion, chances are you’re like most Canadians: trying to make the most of your small living space. From studio apartments to three-bedroom family homes, most of us are craving more space, particularly when home is also the office.

Maximizing your small space to include an office is not an insurmountable challenge. With the right tools

and a little planning, you can bring the benefits of a much larger space to wherever you work.

invest in an ergonomic chair

Considering this is where you’ll be sitting for eight hours a day, investing in the right chair is crucial. Find something with various controls so you’re at a comfortable height, with feet flat on the floor and elbows and wrists straight when typing.

get a desk that works

Though you may love the look of something larger, chances are you can make do with a compact desk. Measure your workstation and see what makes sense, taking into account the space you want versus what you actually need. Pro tip: an adjustable standing desk can give you the option to stretch your legs throughout the day.

clear the clutter

Extra pens and pencils, papers, folders, and empty coffee mugs and dishes… when you’re working in a small space, every item takes up room both physically and mentally. Combine regular work breaks with bringing dishes to the kitchen and store loose items in a box or drawer.

put two screens in one

Multiple screens were great at the office, but at home, it’s rare to have

the space for extra monitors. The LG UltraWide monitor has a single stand and curved screen which can show multiple windows at once, making it easier for you to multitask at work.

make use of sleek backgrounds

By now, we’ve all seen the hilarious (and not-so-hilarious) backgrounds available for virtual calls. While they can be entertaining, they also serve a helpful purpose: hiding your unmade bed, scattered kid toys and dirty dishes.

Using your space wisely will contribute to a more relaxing and productive work environment, so that at the end of the day you can reconnect with family, friends or your adorable pup. To check out more productivity solutions, visit lg.ca. ■
