It is publishing a handy ‘Saving Booklet’ that offers useful tips on how to optimize the benefits and minimize waste of common everyday essentials via the discounting of continuous unconscious wastage of national resources.
From electricity and water, to telephone bills and fuel, this pocket-sized booklet contains useful tips that can be practiced on a day to day basis. In addition to healthy habits on conserving utilities, the booklet also provides valuable insights on saving to be made from efficiencies in time management and how simple steps in managing cash and the environment can also lead to higher levels of disposable income and thus, increased saving.
