Same as I’ve always done:
Know the difference between need and want
Only buy things you need, with the occasional want.
Buy for value (quality/$)
Only drive when you can do many things in the same outing.
Learn to Ridge Ride & keep tires about 5 lbs over inflated.
Learn to cook in a manner such that you can take advantage of lesser cuts of meat.
Turn down thermostats and dress to keep warm.
Cut open used envelopes and you will have a supply of paper for notes, lists, etc.
I love coupons, last week I got free toothpaste, this week I got free paper towels!
I’m only spending money on things that I need. I pay my bills and whatever is left after that goes straight to my savings.
I dont really save but any adults should follow ivgr 100%, everything he says is great.
i check payphones for change… and pick up change even if its just a penny lol it adds up after a while. but thats not saving money thats.. making money i assume?
Walk/ride the bike to place close by.
