I save money by not going for coffee in the morning. You laugh but I use to go and get coffee every morning. that saved me about 5 dollers a day between gas and coffe. The other things I do to save money is use coupons and buy no label food. My husband freaks out but you can save money on no label food. I now go to walmart but it is hard because I have a hard time to stay away from the craft department. Which I usually spend a good amount of money on my crafts. I give you an example today I took my final in medical terminaology and I blanked out so I was down and out so I ended up at a craft store that is near by and end up spending 50 on crafts. I got to stop I have plenty of crafts that I have not even started at home. But it always seem to make me feel better when I buy crafts. How do you save money?

Im doing the same things that I have always done. I only buy things that I absolutely need if they are full price. I save for the things that I want and find the best deal. My husband and I often eat at home. When we do go out somewhere, we usually go somewhere free - like a park for a walk. We make saving a priority. Having a simple life definitely makes it easier!

Hello. I am the type of person who really spends a lot and I think it has been my habit because I want to buy lots of things. Just months ago, I bought a coin bank where I put either coins or paper bills in it, anything that was left in my wallet for the day. I even named my coin bank because it is very cute. That is my way of saving money these days, but I would like to have a savings account so that I will be able to save more.
