Everyone knows that saving money is about the numbers.  The math
formula for savings ultimately comes down to how much you earn minus
how much you spend.  Here are a few math tips to help you spend less
and save money.

Unit Pricing
Learning unit pricing can save
you in shopping.  Although many stores have unit pricing labels on
shelves, you can still compare prices by doing the unit pricing
calculations yourself.  Calculate the unit price of an item by dividing
the price of the package by the unit by which it is measured.  For
instance, a 13-ounce can of coffee which costs $2.69 costs $2.69/13 per
ounce, or a little more than $.20 per ounce.  Compared to a 34-ounce
can of that same coffee costing $5,69, the smaller can is about two
cents more expensive per ounce than the larger can, which weighs in at
about sixteen cents per ounce.

Organizing Time
When making appointments, use a planner such as a calendar and allow sufficient time for transitions and breaks from work.
