And no, you don't want to get Gift Cards for Starbucks or Dunkin' Donuts.
This is about saving cash from creating value for the company you work for.
Think about ways to do your job better for your boss. Then instead of asking for more
money to do your job where you get paid the same as your co-workers,ask to get gift--
cards.
What kind of gift cards you ask?
Okay. The kind you want is the type that you spend money on monthly and it comes out
of your pocket to pay for. Food,or it could be for that expensive monthly hydro bill in
the province or state you live in.
It could be even for small auto type services for your vehicle, or even a 50 dollar gift
card to get gas for your car. Is your mind thinking now?
Think about it,just do a little extra at work and document it. And no, don't sell the gift cards.
Actually use them to save money on stuff you normally buy. Not that coffee I talked about
at the start of this article.
When my employer said he was going to do this,I thought this was a great move. I wasn't
so much into the free gift cards for coffee. Hell, I can buy my own coffee.
Think about the stuff you buy every month that is essential to your life. Food,gas for your
car, or even a bus pass if you take the city bus. That's savings right there.
Talk to your room mate or the wifey and ask here what stuff you buy every month you
could save on. She knows,and if you tell her your employer is giving gift cards it'll have
her pretty little mind churnin' and swirlin' thinking about the great ways to save money
for the two of you, or if you have a family ways to save on the food bill.
There are even other ways to save using gift cards not just from your employer,but possibly from
clients you might have for a small business you run. Times are tough and gift cards are big these
days.
I even use a gift card for using a taxi when I get off work in the morning at times.
So start writing down ways to use gift cards. And like I said don't use them to make money.
Save money. You'll be better off.
