How to survive inflation

Posted on by

It is almost impossible to live without purchasing products and services especially in urban areas, for this reason, expenses are already high. Inflation makes it worse and therefore one needs a few tips on how to live comfortably as well as save money and mostly survive inflation.

First, the most important thing is to monitor the prices of goods in the market. When there is a slight drop is the best time to shop in bulk. Shopping in bulk also saves money and resources as compared to constant trips to the supermarket all month long. Bulk shopping is also cheaper as the packs are more economical. Also, consumers should try and purchase goods from the wholesalers if possible as the chain of distribution is shortened, since there are less middlemen and hence prices are cheaper. That way, one can save a few shillings. Scrutinize your shopping list comprehensively by asking yourself if you really need some of the things you are spending for and how often you use them. If the answer is negative, then do not purchase the items. By this, you will find yourself cutting off unnecessary expenses and saving some for the basic needs. Reduce your consumption on the products that are rising rapidly in price, especially if they are things you can do without. For instance, the price of fuel is rising rapidly. If travelling for a long distance, one can opt to use public means, which is cheaper than fueling your own vehicle that will save you a great deal of money.

Finally, inflation is beyond our control as consumers. There is nothing much we can do about it, but the good news is that we can control how much damage it brings along financially by basically cutting down on the products and services that we do not need temporarily, or reducing how much we utilize them. This will help you save a coin or two, that can be used to buy the necessities. Therefore one does not have to live cheap but just a bit smart. Let the luxuries be a once in a while treat. Consumers should also keep in mind that purchasing commodities in bulk is usually cheaper than the opposite. Good luck as you masquerade past the economic hurricane.

Did United’s complacency hand City the EPL title

Posted on by

The 22nd of April 2012 for most Manchester United fans is a date worth forgetting quickly. With four matches remaining and their team leading their city rivals by 8 points the match against Everton was going to be key in their quest for a 20th Premier league title . The match started off on a low note perhaps a befitting start to the classic encounter it proved to be in the end
Complacency has been a cliché overused in footballing circles but united this season have been guiltier of this than any other time in their history. Their exit in Europe left a lot of people dumbfounded. As if that was not enough, further losses to Blackburn rovers and Newcastle United followed and from both you would have thought it would have been a lesson well learnt. Fast forwad to the fixture that many pundits believed would set United up for a record 20th title. Everton have had mixed results and big sides have fallen by their wayside among them Chelsea and Manchester city. When the toffees came to Oldtrafford everyone expected it to be an easy cruise to the premier league summit for the defending champions. However as it turned out to be, Everton had other ideas . They equaled United pound for pound goal for goal sending the old Trafford faithful who had been enjoying a sunny afternoon with their side scoring with almost every attack they mounted into shock and disbelief.
Complacency had come to bite Manchester United right at their own backyard and eventually sacrificing their title advantage at the altar of conceit. A few weeks ago whether u call them mind games or not everyone including the City faithful conceded it was just a matter of time and the reds would be up in the city atop an open bus celebrating. How quickly things turn around , now city have fate in their own hands. Whatever they do on the 30th of april at the Etihad will decide where the marathon that has been the 20th premier league will be celebrated.

And like the manager himself put it the short visit to the etihad will be the most important in his career. This time round there is a lot more at stake unlike in previous meetings where the city’s bragging rights would be at stake, there is plenty to fight for with the title being key. Manchester united will also be looking to avoid an embarrassing double loss to city with the 6 -1 thrashing memories still fresh in their minds. If United go on to lose at the Etihad then they will have no one to blame but themselves having had such a profound lead with 4 games left.
