I grew up poor, so my number one hack is to spend like I still am, no matter how many raises I get. Love some of these tips though.

My washer was jumping during the spin cycle a few months ago and I got a quote for $250. I said no and went to YouTube. Thirty minutes of labor and $37 for the parts saved my life.

I just fixed a leaky toilet and replaced a washing machine intake valve by myself thanks to YouTube!

I did a pickup order at my Kroger today. I saved $50 because I had 2 digital coupons worth $25 specifically for pickup orders and digital coupons for various items and sales for another $25. My $94 order cost me $44 just because I did a pickup order! What an awesome score!

As a single mother of 4 back in 1980's with a deadbeat ex that wouldn't pay child support, I went to work driving truck, heavy equipment and construction. I'm glad I did! This has saved me a small fortune over the years!! Every little bit helps! Thanks for the tips.

We make yogurt in the instant pot. It’s around $5 for gallon of whole milk, $2 for table cream, occasionally $2.99 for a plain yogurt to reset the starter. It makes 2X what we used to get for 11.99 and go through weekly for smoothies, breakfast, sauces, etc. delicious!

My mom used to save Christmas cards we got in the mail, cut off the portion that had writing on it and use the front with the pretty pictures to put on presents instead of buying labels.

WOW, now these are some great money saving tips! I do my own pedicures and instead of spending tons of money at a salon I reached a point in my life where I decided I am good with letting myself go gray. It's actually turning into a mix of gray and silver.. and I'm happy with me! I thrift clothes shop, yard sales, and cook a lot at home. Love your tips Christine!💖

I started working at a grocery store and found out that the store marks down meat 1 day before sell by date so now I will check meat case for items that are marked down. This helps for the carnivores I live with that need meat at every meal Also its very common for last weeks ad sale items to be marked down following week because store gets too much and has to move inventory. Example if ground beef is on sale this week I'll check next week and most likely there will be a mark down item. grab these deals and freeze it or cook as soon as I get home. I write date of purchase with a sharpie on package so I rotate items so nothing gets freezer burned and wasted. In the 9 months I have been working I have saved hundreds of dollars on meat and have a fully stocked freezer. Ask the butcher how your store does it. I also bought a cheap dry erase board at dollar tree that I put on outside of freezer to track what I have. when I'm meal planning for the week I don't have to open freezer to rummage through I just look at board and know exactly what I have inside. Also reminds me of those items that are buried that I might forget about.

Getting a milk frother has absolutely changed my coffee game! It makes me feel like I’m drinking something fancy and I don’t even miss Starbucks.

We just bought about 7 acres if land and are going to build a house, but also plant a bunch of fruit trees and produce. I truly I can't wait to share with friends, family, or really anyone. I've been blessed by so many other gardeners' produce, I really look forward to sharing.

If you are not in the financial market space right now, you are making a huge mistake. I understand that it could be due to ignorance, but if you want to make your money work for you, prevent inflation from eroding your savings, build generational wealth, and cultivate good habits and financial knowledge, you must be in the market.

I'm a 72 year old in UK, and I just love your videos !! You are me as I was bringing up my boys after I lost my husbannd in my early thirties. You have to have a thick skin at times !! Thank you x

[jodyblinoff]

This was a phenomenal video! I shared it with both of my daughters (19 and 21). The distilled wisdom here could easily be put into a frugal living book, Christine! Hint, hint, nudge, nudge. I would buy one for every family member!

Maybe this is just here in the UK, but there is actually a cleaning product called elbow grease! 😄

I'm proud to say that I already do so many of these things. My kids and I really struggled after my divorce and I still come from that place of lack. A few of my hacks:
#1: Make sloppy joes. Buy buns from the day-old bakery rack, and ground meat (I like bison) on it's last sell-by date. Leftover sloppy joe can be made into spaghetti sauce, chili, etc.
#2: Save your laundry water in the utility tub to reuse. I sync hot, bleachy wash with days I mop my kitchen and bathroom floors.
#3: buy extension cords after Christmas at 50% off.

Hubby and I cut our own hair, order water if we go out, most of the stuff we get is 50 to 75% off... Love your videos and this was helpful in that "Yep we are doing that too".. Thank you, your such an inspiration, don't you cha know.

whenever i recieve a mylar balloon for any occasion -i take it apart at the seam and save both pieces.when i have a unique shaped gift to wrap, i just take a piece that matches that holiday (valentine balloon, graduation, etc) and wrap the gift in it-free wrapping paper and very shiny and festive!

[robino]

This is such a smart list. Cutting down on the amount of gifts you buy does make a huge difference. Spending time together is much better than just giving toys! 💌

[amandanelson]

Please consider doing a video on how to churn credit cards and how to travel frugally! We don't buy Christmas gifts anymore for our kids. We don't want stuff we want to create memories. Would love to use your tips to save when doing this!
