Frugal people don’t pay for Deleteme 9$ per month, I’m sorry:(

Fast food has gotten worse, while also getting more expensive.

You can thank ticketmaster for price gouging concert tickets.

I stopped buying restaurant food. It’s just not worth my money anymore.

I also stopped shopping on Amazon.

How are people who are NOT bedridden still paying for all this delivery??? You've got two legs and a car!

We stopped ordering alcoholic beverages at restaurants. Only a drink every couple of weeks at home. Amazing money saver and better for health. Also cut out fruit juice and soda. Only water and tea.

Can’t lie, I cancelled all my subscriptions last year, it really has made a difference financially

I meal plan for the week, shop my freezer and pantry then make my list for what i need and go grocery shopping. No overspending

I’ve completely stopped getting pizza from chains. Low quality greasy junk that costs $20 for a large pizza now. Take your $20 to a local family owned pizza place. The pizza will be much better and honestly the same price as the fast food type pizza. There’s like 10 family owned pizza shops within 3 miles of my house too

I don't think I've spent 1800 in the past decade on clothes...

How about pure bred dogs that cost thousands? My family has always had good luck and happy years with dogs that came from a shelter for much less money.

The thing I stopped buying is fast food. It use to be okay when I could go get a quick burger for $1.00-$2.00 but now it cost close to $5-$6 and a meal is over $10.

You really blew it with your comment on thrift stores, George. As a person who was required to wear quality clothes for work, I thrift. A clean white shirt, washed and ironed $2., a designer $2, 000. designer cashmere sports jacket, never worn, $5. plus $45. for tailoring. I have 6 of them from different top rung designers. 1) you have to know good clothes and 2) you need to look at a piece of clothing in natural light, making sure you check common wear spots (cuffs, elbows, collars and seats on pants. Why spend twelve K when you can get the same for $300, all inclusive? Be frugal!

Switching from Target to Aldi's for most grocery staples or items.

I rarely buy candy and sodas. They’re not good for me and it’s an expense I don’t need. Bringing my own food to work saves me from using the vending machine and is better for me too!

British guy here... Budgeting food is one of the simplest ways to cut spending. I bulk buy soup cans for my lunches and partner them with a slice of bread for lunch, simple, quick, nutritious and can be delicious. Otherwise a simple ham and cheese sandwich will do, no extras! My lunch total is about $10 a week, once converted from British Pounds to Dollars. Evening meals I bulk make, roast a whole chicken, can last 4-5 days, or buy 4 Chicken breasts, butterfly and season them, bake or fry them and partner them with some loose hand-picked veg from the grocery store, again simple, inexpensive, nutritious and delicious. Omelettes are another favourite, bulk buy eggs, even add veg again to them, add ham and cheese for flavour, amazing! Happy Budgeting everyone!
