Post edited 6:48 pm – January 29, 2011 by The Saved Quarter


Every Monday, I post The Saved Quarter Challenge, and it is my most popular day of the week in terms of page views/unique visitors. Other blogs link in with their savings tips and progress. For the past month, I've posted about getting your financial house in order, and in February, I'm focusing on saving money on regular expenses.

I'd like to add links to some Yakezie posts about the topics I have planned. If you've written a post with tips on saving in the following categories, please post them and I'll add those that fit best, with links of course, in upcoming Challenge posts for the month of February. Here are the topics I'm planning on covering.

  • Saving on cell phone/land lines
  • Saving on transportation (buying, maintaining, and insuring your car, using alternative forms of transportation to save money)
  • Saving on Internet
  • Saving on TV/cable/satellite

If you have a post on any of these topics, send them along to me, and add your preferred anchor text along with the link! I may change the anchor text but will do my best to give you the link you request while keeping it natural in the flow of the post. Hopefully it will lead to some yummy link juice and a bit of extra traffic for you!

Here's a great guest post at BFS from the Car Negotiation Coach:  http://www.budgetinginthefunst…..egotiable/  If you would like some anchor text, "car financing" would be great.  Thank you!

You might have some Canadian readers, and if you do, they MUST learn about importing cars from the US into Canada to save 20%-30% on the purchase! (we saved over $9300 on our car purchase in July 2010!!!)

Glad you liked it!  The savings are insane if you're willing to learn what to do and spent a day doing the work

This sounds great. I've written a lot of content on the very subjects you are looking for. It does have a Canadian flavour to it, but I still think it is relevent. Here it is:

- How To Save Money On TV

- Guide To Free Internet TV

- How To Save Money On Internet Service

- Save Money Using VoIP

I apparently exceeded the maximum number of links, so here's the rest Cool:

- magicJack: A Review Of The Money Saving Telephone Device

- How To Save Money On Home Phone Service

- How To Save Money on Long Distance

I also screwed up a link above, but it won't let me edit that post for some reason, so here it is again:

We've got a good post on how to save money on gas.  We run the numbers on whether it is best to buy discount gas with cash (at places like Arco), or use a gas credit card that pays 3-5% back at any other gas station:

Here is one that I wrote last year. Unfortunately, it talks about how to save on cell phone, landline phone, internet, cable, and energy costs: http://knsfinancial.com/trying…..utilities/

This was actually part of a series that I did which also included housing, credit cards, and auto insurance – here is the summary post: http://knsfinancial.com/trying…..big-stuff/
