Spend money to save money - it may sound like an oxymoron, but the statement is true. There are many things one should buy to save money on day-to-day expenditure and on high-value items.
Reusable Water Bottles
Carry a good food grade water bottle when you go outside. It’s a must for travellers. Instead of buying overpriced packaged water on your trip, fill filtered water from hotel, restaurant and airport to save money. I calculated - on my last trip I saved nearly 300 rupees by using a reusable water bottle.
You really did nail this one Saru. I agree on all except e-readers. Being old school here, but I love the feel of a book,turning of pages and usage of book-markers and so buying hard copies will always be my little indulgence :-) I need to get that storage organiser in place though.
I had the privilege of being invited for a discussion on blogging by Mr Ashok Vyas (Program Director, ITV Gold ) with Mr Rakesh Kumar. We discussed various aspects of blogging and it was an enriching experience. Mr Ashok Vyas is an accomplished poet, read his work here . And Mr Rakesh Kumar writes on spiritual topics on his blog .

Professionally, I am a content writer for a couple of websites. I ghostwrite for two more agencies based out of North America. I write sponsored articles on my blog. I tweet, post Facebook statutes, answer Quora questions, and mention brands on Instagram for money. Brands even consult me for s
Amidst the layers of smile, I hide my pain, He pats the surface, Thinking all is well. The sore look in my eyes, Never bothers him a bit, My eyes not only speak, They scream, they yell. It rained last summer, His skin felt so, Lying on his shoulder, When all my tears fell. Sinking in the non-existent, I don't know how, If ever I have to write, How the word 'life' would spell.
Absolutely pragmatic list.
