1. Appear to be organized at the office and people will see
you as smarter and more competent which will lead to pay
raises and better jobs. This includes your desk, paperwork,
timeliness and wardrobe.
2. Have a designated place to store receipts so you can easily
return items.
3. File your tax-deductible receipts together so they'll be ready for tax season.
4. Keep everything in it's place so you won't run out and buy a
duplicate of something you already have but can't find.
5. Store your financial records together and review them on a
regular basis.
6. Have a budget and stick to it. Keep track of expenses and
you'll be less likely to spend money on trivial items.
7. Stock your kitchen and plan ahead for dinner so you'll eat
out less often.
8. Plan several months ahead for normal purchases so you can
buy in bulk and take advantage of sales. This includes food
staples, paper goods, toiletries, clothing and gifts.
