Hello every one. I just wanted to let people know that I have found a great way to save money.

Calling:
For my business, I have to make a lot of phone calls. I also had to get a 800 number. With Verizon it cost me a boatload. I found out about VigorTel.com and since then I been paying $20 a month for unlimited call around the world.

Faxing:
Same goes here, I used to pay a boatload for faxing between paper, ink and a fax until I found out about eFax. It let me send faxes though my email, and that really saved me money.

Please post anything else that you have found that saved you money!

I use eFax, and it is a great tool. However, I have vonage, and rarely use it. Plus, I have used a 800 number too, but they double charge you.

Hello all,

As a virtual assistant I`m always on the look out for useful services that don`t cost a bunch of money.  I have used Efax as well as MyFax for fax services.  I use TollFreeForwarding for my toll free number, there are no monthly fees and you use only the time used, only minor thing is you much have at least a $10.00 pre-paid balance with them at the beginning of the month.  Works great for my use.

I love using OpenSource Software (Firefox, Thunderbird, SunBird and OpenOffice) save a bundle on software that way.  If you`re someone who needs to track their hours for billing purposes web source that`s really useful is www.myhours.com.  I also use www.bravenet.com for many of web-site resources, most of their products are free (with ad support) or minimal cost for their professional versions.

BTW, great discussion.

Thanks for the info on Vigor Tel, I use the phone a whole lot too and have been considering something like this, especially for out of country calls.

Thanks!
