467. Save Cash by Going Alcohol-Free

If you don't drink alcohol, let your insurance company know—it could mean a discount!

Some insurers offer "alcohol-free" discounts since non-drinkers tend to have fewer accidents or health issues.

All you need to do is notify your insurance agent and check if your company has this option.

The discount isn’t huge, but over time it can add up to real savings.

You’ll get some delicious vanilla you can bake with, and it makes for a great gift!
