Nasheed Factor loves charity! Save more to give more - Saving tips!

Nasheed Factor loves charity! Allah loves charity. 

Feeling the pinch? Or a student? Where does it go!? Find yourself saying "I JUST got my pay!?" In order to give a little more, you can make the smallest of cutbacks, and that little extra you save can go a long way.

Here are the best tips for saving a little more, so you can give a little more..



1. Poundland



Needs no explanation. 10 packets of Mccoys for a pound, 4 Kit Kats for a pound, 4 cans of Pepsi for a pound. Let's compare this to News24's Mccoys at 70p per packet - no wonder it's a stuggle to save! Take that extra trip and stock up on your munchies. The tip here is - BUY IN MULTIPACK.


2. The thermal cup



Coffee junkie? - GUILTY! At almost £3 for a cup of coffee, it's surprising that some people still get tea/coffee everyday. Get a thermal cup and make your own, even go the extra mile and indulge in hot chocolate, then take it out with you! The trick is eliminate a daily habit by creating your own. Buy one for £2.95 at Esquires.


3. Get Lloyds TSB's SAVE THE CHANGE service



If you bank with Lloyds they have a great free service where if you spend an amount on your debit card - it gets rounded up to the nearest pound and the spare change goes straight into another account for you. So if you spend £4.95 - it'll save 5p of your money, if you spend £1.98, it'll save 2p and £3.72 - saving 28p and so on.. Then you'll have collected all your pennies - give them all to charity. Read about it here.


4. Get a TASTECARD



50% off meals and 2 for 1 meals all the time! 1,600 restaurants are included. So if you really cannot avoid the odd fancy dinner - get a TASTECARD!


5. Do the pound a day challenge! 



So many children are dying because of lack of food and water. These basic essentials we take for granted. But they are the essentials. Forget the extra spending and try spending £1 a day for a month. There's no greater satisfaction if you can even save that £1. Leave your credit and debit cards at home and be brave and generous! Whatever you save - give it to charity. This campaign is tremendous. 


6. Make the most of the internet!



You'll be surprised. Spend some time looking around for the cheapest deals for anything. Pricerunner is great for this. Forget designer brands. Shop in sales and discounts. Boohoo, Very and ASOS are all fashionable and you can really bag a bargain. Or how about all items of clothing for a fiver each. Everything5pounds is the way to go. Bargain clothes and no one needs to know ;)



Nasheed Factor will hope to raise a lot of money inshaAllah during our final event. All profits go to major and most neediest causes around the world.
