Not buying anything for myself (like clothes and shoes) and bringing lunch more often.

My FH MADE ME cut up ALL of my credit cards except for one in case of emergency. I also bring my lunch 4 out of 5 days during the week, I dont buy coffee (have a machine at work), just basically really settled down with the unnecessary spending.

-We have been cooking 95% of the time. -Not buying clothes, a new computer my FH wanted, etc. -trying to limit my FH from buying anything off ebay (which is very hard to do). -Setting limits on how much to spend on xmas, b-day gifts. Will skip v-day this year. -and just watching what we spend.

I have been cooking dinner a lot instead of ordering out and also we don't go out to bars, lounges or clubs anymore.

Re: What Are You Doing To Save.......
not shopping as much... limited bar/club excursions going out to eat less often, cooking more bringing lunch rather than buying tutoring after school
