Here are 5 small budget tweaks that can save you money over time.

1. Stop overspending on gas. Unless the manufacturer of your car says otherwise, regular gas is fine.

2. Pull out the wall plugs on your electronics. Even when devices are turned off, they’re sucking power. It seems like a hassle, but if you pull the plugs, you’ll save around $100 a year.

3. Don’t feel like you have to stick with the same service provider. Check out the competition’s offers and deals. It might be in your best interest to switch.

4. Think about borrowing instead of buying. How many times have you made a major purchase and only used it once?

5. Quit going overboard on parties. The average wedding now costs $30,000. And it’s become a trend to throw elaborate themed kid’s parties that cost thousands. But most kids will be just as happy with a few games and some cake.
