I tallied up all of these amounts* to see what we would save: in TOTAL $12,747!
*I tried to use average monthly/yearly amounts and fees to get a general sense of how much could be saved per year, many items could cost more or less depending on your lifestyle/part of the world. Many of these items may not need to be re-purchased year after year but I tried to simply showcase one year of savings. This list is to serve as a jumping off point for you to see if perhaps there are areas where you can cut costs and save money.
