Whether you are maintaining a home or planning to buy a home in beautiful SW Florida, there are ways to save money.
As I have noted in previous articles, every little effort makes a difference.
Let me make an effort on your behalf by offering you the following advice:
If you are interested in buying a home, contact me to find the best value for your dollar. Let me do the research for you so you will have the time and energy to do all the other things to save you money, like.........
Drive your car less: Plan to carpool, use public transportation, ride your bicycle. And if you must drive, use these links to calculate your gas use for a trip and find the lowest priced gas in the area:

Always keep your tires inflated properly! And shop for cheaper car insurance.
Host a garage sale. Great way to get rid of clutter, make some money and meet your neighbors!
Buy used. There are so many wonderful consignment and thrift shops in the area. Here is one of my favorites: http://collectiveconsign.com/
Consider a roomate. Share your home or rent a room.
Plan your meals: Don’t buy bottled water; Don’t bring the children to the grocery store (impulsive or pressure buying) and Eat before you shop. This link will give you sales, circulars and coupons for the Bonita Springs, Fl area.

Turn off the lights
Use less water: Read more from Bonita Springs Utilities on how to conserve water: http://www.bonitaspringsutilities.com/water_resources/conservation.asp
Don’t use another bank’s ATM. If you must use your bank's ATM schedule it during a regular trip between work or grocery store.
Coming into town to view homes for sale? Have family or friends visiting?
Consider budget hotels who offer quality lodging such as the Holiday Inn Express:
