Eat frozen burritos or pizza for dinner sometimes just cause it's a cheap meal.

The guy suing the DMV for needing a ssn for his son has done that. Multiple times, I'll guarantee it.

Buy 2 liter soda and pour into 20 Oz bottles to take to work for lunch. Get about 3 1/2 per 2 liter.

Continue to keep old clothes/shoes and won't throw them out until they are falling apart.

Fly Spirit Airlines, with only a small carry-on and no luggage, I will wear three layers of clothing and stuff the pockets with underwear and socks.

But I will pay for first class on any major airline for my daughter to fly all over the country to visit her friends.

I was with you until you sent the kid first class. They need to learn how to be frugal too.

Change my oil myself
cut my own lawn
do all my pool maintenance myself

I don't pay people to do things for me that I can do myself



That's me in a nutshell, plus any other maintenance around the house.

However, with still recovering from a serious ankle surgery and not being able to even put my foot on the floor with ANY weight, I've got a guy cutting my grass every 2 or so weeks---------and it's killing me to have to do that.

First time in my 72 years I've had to hire someone to cut my grass.

Save extra condiments and napkins from fast food restaurants.
we do this only to throw out the condiments later. Most of my frugality efforts result in later chunking the efforts. But we gotta stop our liberal use of paper towels and plates.
