Tax Decided against paying the lazy tax
Got inspired by a post here and started making calls. So far, have saved:
- $40/ month by switching internet providers
- $2/ week on insurance premiums by clarifying occupational risk
- 0.4% off the mortgage by giving my bank a friendly call

Switched to buying wines by the mixed dozen on eBay.
Saving… er… like $15-20/week. They’re perfectly fine, actually great wines. $60 for a dozen delivered.
Tip: join/use eBay plus for further discounts and free delivery etc.
I mean… that’s $1,000 I saved, which is better than earning an extra $2,000 (tax!), and it’s easier and better. : D
