When you get paid, put away half of what you had left over from your last paycheck into your savings account. Watch it add up.
Two days out of the week, forgo your usual spending habits like having coffee or buying a snack. You will end up spending less.
This one I've been planning to do. You can replant things like green onions, cilantro, parsley, basil, leeks, lettuce so you don't have to buy them.

I love my French press. It's the cheapest way to have delicious coffee. No fancy coffee pods or paper refills needed. Just make and enjoy.

Not only this is healthier for you and will save your waistline but it's also so much cheaper. Put lemon or fruit in for flavour.

I'm currently saving up for this, but in the long run, this will not only eliminate so much plastic but save you tons.
I have to admit I do this all the time. I get a great discount on my cable and before the deal expires I renegotiate. Kaboom!
Use old maps, sheet music, or any other paper you plan on recycling with a cool design to make one-of-a-kind wrapping paper. Love this!
Sometimes it can actually turn out to be really good for you and very satisfying in the end. So get creative.
