So many ideas that we can implement to save more pennies for the future. In particular, I have made #4 and #5 my daily habit at work. From where I come from, a cup of morning coffee at my local coffee shop is one dollar. When I buy sachets from the supermarket, it is 4 dollars fro twenty packs. Thats a 16 dollar saving for 2 weeks supplies. Lunching out at work cost about 8-10 dollars easily these days at food courts. Packing my own lunch which usually consist of left overs from dinners will mean I get to save at least 200 dollars a month. I have also extended this to newspapers. I don't buy newspapers anymore since we can get news on the internet. Besides most news are negative energy anyway. I have one challenge on being frugal for all of us to consider though. How can you still live it up and still remain frugal? For me, recently, I discovered the concept of Groupons. With these, I still get first class eating and pampering and holidays at more than half the price. Not a bad way to live in luxury and being frugal right. Cheers Hi Tess,
