I was having this conversation with a friend and we both got some useful ideas from each other (cancelling various underused subscription services, making use of libraries, more home vege gardening etc) - curious to know what else people are trying.

Basically what Dave wrote + no more unnecessary purchases (inc. cutting down on junk food), buying in bulk where possible, and keeping an eye out for deals and offers.

I’ve also switched to a cheaper mobile provider + plan (Skinny), turns out that I don’t really use that much data, given how I’m almost always in a place with WiFi. That and halting

Coincidentally, I’ve also stopped drinking alcohol (which was for health reasons), so that’s been saving me a decent bit of money (considering many a regretful monetary decisions were made whilst drunk). On the flip side, I haven’t been to karaoke in a long time, and I’m not sure if sober karaoke would be any fun…
