With spring already underway, it’s exciting to know that summer is just around the corner. Many people like to start fresh this time of year by participating in the ritual of spring savings to prepare for summer vacations, activities and plans. Below are five tips and tricks on how to get your finances “summertime” ready:

Track Your Spending:

A great way to get started is by listing out your finances and then reviewing your spending habits. You may not realize how much the cancellation fees on missed fitness classes or haircut appointments add up! Small changes like these can eliminate any unnecessary spending.

Consider Alternatives:

After making your list, re-evaluate the services you are paying for to see if there are more flexible, budget-friendly options available.

Lifestyle Expert Anabelle Blum recommends taking a close look at your internet service to make sure you have one that best fits your needs and your budget.

Blum has also found that the company’s cell phone service, Xfinity Mobile, is a great budget-friendly option for her and her family.

“It has flexible data plan options where we, as customers, can easily switch between the multiple Unlimited and By the Gig plans. It’s not a fixed plan; you can make the changes that you want, whenever you want,” she said.

Find the Fees:

When reviewing your subscriptions and bills, be sure to check for service fees. Blum recommends choosing an internet provider without any – like Xfinity’s Prepaid Internet Services.

Smart Ways to Save:

When reviewing how you spend your money, it’s just as important to include smart ways to save – whether it is for a rainy day fund, a splurge purchase, or a big event.

The Xfinity WiFi pass is a great way to save as it provides 30 days of instant access to millions of Xfinity WiFi hotspots and unlimited data for $20.

The Best Things in Life are Free:

As a part of this journey towards financial freedom, don’t forget to take advantage of any available free services. For example, set up a free consultation with Xfinity to help you identify the services that best fit your needs and budget. You can also learn about available options based on income-levels, including Comcast’s Internet Essentials program and the Affordable Connectivity Program.

Be sure to get your finances “summertime” ready by following one or more of these tips to keep you and your family on track with your budget for the rest of the year.
