Where To Save Money To Pay For Electricity Increases?

Kiwis face power bills up to 10 per cent higher from today and more increases could be on the way. Many families are now struggling having also recently been hit by house and content insurance premium increases with the earthquake levies being increased substantially.
Des Morgan Director of Kiwi Discount Club said that for most consumers there is no extra dollars that they can divert to pay for the increased electricity charges so the only other alternative is to take a long hard look at where they currently spend their money and where they could save money to pay for the increased electricity costs
Morgan said it has never been a better time to take control of your personal finances and save money. He advises that all consumers keep a budget and shop around for all their personal expenses.
He said “Kiwi Discount Club Ltd is giving away free a 20 page e-book free showing consumers how they can stop living pay cheque to pay cheque by taking a closer look at their household spending and where they shop for all their day to day expenses. A copy can be obtained at kiwidiscountclub.co.nz “
Morgan said by pricing around savings can be made on most fixed month to month expenses including petrol, groceries, electricity, house, contents and car insurance, life insurance, health insurance and mortgage repayments and this saving can be used to meet the higher electricity costs as well as setting up a reserve fund.

He urges consumers to use the power of the internet to scrutinize all outgoings to make sure that you are getting value for money. What could possibly be better than taking care of most purchases from the comfort of your own home he said?
One of the biggest benefits of buying online is the convenience. By purchasing your goods and services online you are able to move at your own pace and compare all the options available.
As an example Kiwi Discount Club members who purchase their life and health insurance online receive a cash rebate of 30% of the first year’s premium Morgan said.
