      We get the hello fresh plan. It was my wife's idea because we just bought a new home with a huge kitchen. I thought it would be a ripoff. I was wrong. Compared to our old grocery bill it's actually cheaper, delivery is weekly, no wasted food, healthy and it's about 20 minutes to make a meal. The food is really excellent. Only drawback is more dishes and with a dishwasher that has a cost!
      My dogs don't work cheap!!

    I don't have an expensive coffee machine, but I brew coffee at home, pack my lunch errryday for work, rarely eat out. I walk to work when I can(free). Frugal (cheap) is my middle name. But also those coins save allow me to travel worldwide for about a month every year. I buy my groceries and cook my own meals, I can not afford those prepared meal services. Cooking is an enjoyable pastime for me. Cut back where you can, it adds up quickly.

I have a Fidelity account that allows me to take money out of anyone’s ATM and they reimburse me for whatever fee I’m charged. I’ve had that account since 1999.

    I put more money into my pocket by learning how to make things myself. I do a lot of food prepping to cut back on having unnecessary doctor bills later, health conscious. I make my own laundry soap, and I've done so for a year now. Literally have only spent 12.00 on Arm & Hammer Wash Soap, Borax and Kirk's Soap, do the math. The only thing I've had to buy more of is the soap and I get it from Big Lot. I don't have any cable subscription or internet. I use my Hotspot for now. I watch movies on UA-cam. I live a very frugal life and still enjoy travels, rec activities etc. I agree with you Anthony, I workout at home, and walk at local parks. ❤

    I know it's not for everyone, but shopping at the thrift stores or discount stores can be a great way to save money. An example is the Keurig that I picked up at a local thrift store for about $5 USD; it had come from an estate sale donation lot and was missing the part that your cup or mug sat on and was used to collect any drips or spills, which I was able to find a compatible replacement on Amazon for another $5 USD. After running it through several of it's dispensing cycles to sterilize and sanitize it with some boiling water and citric acid I spent about $20 USD total for a basically brand new Keurig. I definitely adhere to the off brand mentality except for a few select items that I just cannot find a good off brand substitute for; like Pepsi for example.

    Everything you said is how my mind works. I am not rich but I am never broke. 😃 As an African, cooking at home is how we grew up. Making large pots of food for a number of days is what we do. Didn’t even know that was meal planning. And it tastes better the next day and the day after 😂. Eating out is a treat. I even buy store brand coffee. Tastes as good to me.

    Two ways to save on water. First get you a stainless steel bottle and stainless steel cap from Klean Kanteen. Then depending on your budget, get a 5 gallon bottle and chargeble pump. Fill the 5 Gallon bottle up at the store. Walmart is the cheapest. Or buy a reverse osmosis water system with UV. Fill your water bottle up before you leave the house. If you drink lots of water, get two stainless steel bottles and caps.

    The coffee breakdown for me was that I liked many different coffees from many different brands. Many brands charge about $10 for 12oz bags. Even the more expensive brands charge $20 for 12oz bags. A 12 oz bag of coffee makes about 20-25 cups for me. So it’s a $0.50-$1 for a cup of coffee that tastes just as good if not better than Starbucks or other coffee shops.
    And some people don’t even care about the taste that much, they’d be happy with Folger’s or instant coffee so they could save even more. You might even be a coffee snob and just enjoy a cheaper cup

    It's easy to say shopping addicts are not mature with there money. As a shopaholic who just spend over 5k in the last 3 months, I learned it's out of maybe having some type of impulsive behavior out of emotions or past trauma. I have Buyers remorse like crazy because I drain my saving almost then I build it back up to drain again. I'm seeking solutions. I had thought about counseling, but UA-cam is helping me. I could have paid my home off and student loans and not really have any major debt.

I cut the cord on cable, bought a tv antenna, use my firestick, $125.00 monthly savings, stopped taking daily newspaper, kept going up. I google a lot. Dont use debit card anywhere, cash a check monthly for expenses. Cook at home, its cheaper to buy ground beef, buns, lettuce, etc than a Mc D's burger.

    According to Google, Starbucks had 38.2 million customers in 2023. If you multiply that by just $3 is mind blowing. If you multiply that by $7 it is just stupid money being spent on coffee. I spent $300 on an Espresso machine and a can of Espresso grounds is $16 a month. Tastes exactly like Starbucks when I make my own.

    I agree with everything except the gym. Is either you pay the gym or you pay a doctor, especially when you are getting older. They are just some joint, muscle, and parts of your body that walking or running won't get to. I, for example, struggle with the gym, but joining a gym class helps because you don't have to think of what you do.

    95% of people are poor because they still won't do the necessary. Even if you only make minimum wage; you can save money in many ways. Live for yourself NOT others. Remove the jealousy in your heart and God will do miracles for you in time. Example: Eating out or Ordering Out three times a day = $15 x 3 = $54/ day ; $378/week ; $1512/month ; $18,144/year spent on fast food. Just imagine just cooking your three meals each day and saving $19,000 a year just on that one change! Anyone can do it. Just make a daily sheet on your expenses.

    I’m American and never go to an ATM (I get a bunch of free ATM visits with my banks anyway). I never buy bottled water; I have an insulated reusable water bottle made of metal. I never go to Starbucks (I buy a big container of excellent coffee which I make at home at a ridiculously low price). My gym has a $10 monthly membership, but I pay more ($24/month) because I can use gyms all over the world with it, and I can bring a guest each time I go. When I travel in my car, I never pay for a hotel. I work out and shower at my gym and then sleep in my car (I’m small, so it’s comfy, and I never sleep well in hotels). I traveled from Florida to Canada and was able to shower and work out - without spending money on a hotel. Not all Americans are wasteful or stupid. Oh, and I never eat fast food. I’ll occasionally pick up a pizza for $10 at Costco, but that’s cheap and not often. I also have never had cable TV (haven’t even owned a TV since 2007). I also don’t have internet at home; I have unlimited data on my phone and use the library near my house if I need a computer. I dye my own hair at home and do a really good job. I also do my own nails. I get haircuts about 2x per year. I drive a 2017 car which I bought used in 2020. I recently fixed my own air conditioner for $20 using UA-cam videos- a job which would have cost $400 or so if I’d called an HVAC guy. I cut my own grass and tend to my own landscaping. I paint, redo my own floors, and have even fixed my roof after a hurricane (before I got a metal one), and have installed my own mailbox. I also buy old furniture and refinish or reupholster it. I’m a woman who is just under 5’2” and weigh 98-100 lbs. You don’t have to be a big dude to do home repairs. My next big feat will be changing my own car brakes. I have a mechanical engineer friend who is going to help me the first time.
