[quote=Anonymous]Eat less meat.

Buy good coffee and a nice travel mug you like and commit to purchasing less starbucks. Hell, but disposable cups you like if you enjoy carrying it around and tossing. It's way cheaper.

But more store brands; they're the same thing for many products.

Think about where you're driving so that you don't backtrack constantly: it adds up and if you fill your tank every 12 days instead of every 8, that really adds up.

Don't buy books or magazines. Use the library, borrow from friends, borrow from Kindle store, and search online for things to read - many articles are free.

Cut cable. Don't miss it.

Fix small things yourself. That squeaky refrigerator just might be a fan that needs cleaning, and you can definitely figure that out and do it.

If you're bad about lunches and Starbucks, figure out what you're spending. If it's $50/week, take out $25 at the beginning of the week and spend that cash and only that cash. Set limits.

Clip coupons. Use Groupons/Living Social vouchers (for things you already buy/use). [/quote]
