don't buy shit you don't need

keep the phone you have until it stops working. don't drop it. don't replace electronics every year. buy durable shoes.

Saving money means that you necessarily need money coming in to save.
Tip #1: get an income.

2: cut down expenses. if you're down to bare necessities already, then you need to get a bigger income.

3: cut down on what your necessities are and live on fewer things that you consider to be necessary. It is possible to reduce water heating bills by taking cold showers, for example, but if your utilities are included in your rent and you can't reduce that cost, take hot showers anyway. Cut down on dishwater by reusing dirty dishes. Shower once a week whether you need it or not. Reduce the temperature that you consider necessary for comfort during the winter and wear double layers of clothing instead.  Cutting down on what is necessary for eating, eating a lot of rice is a good idea if you also eat a lot of beans with that.  Rice and beans together = good source of complete protein.  But don't forget that you need vegetables too.

Hmph.
