Manage your money, create seasonal memos, organize your schedule, and more with free Microsoft Office templates.

Microsoft has a number of free templates that you can download to help you with all sorts of things. Visit Microsoft’s Template site to start your search.

You can narrow down templates by Office application — such as Word, Excel, or PowerPoint, etc… Or look for templates based on what you need — like real estate, calendars, finance and accounting, travel, lots more.

The site also allows you to share templates of your own.  You will need a Windows Live ID to get started, but it is free to get one and easy to set up.

The templates work on both Mac and Windows computers. New templates are added all the time, so check the Microsoft site often. Subscribe to the Templates Blog to keep up to date.
