Unconventional Ways to Save Money
thumbnail
  1. Don't pay money to collect. Collect what you already have.
  2. Don't buy/shop impulsively. "Impulse buying is the misfortune of the saver"
  3. Don't waste food. Use all your ingredients before they spoil.
  4. Don't buy disposable items. Such as:
    4.1 Paper towel. Get a piece of cloth. When used, put it in boiled water.
    4.2 Coffee pod. Use a reusable filter, or a coffee press.
  5. Buy %80 of your clothing used, %20 of your clothing new. Your savings will vary from %5 to %100
  6. It's not savings unless you save it. - You see a sale of %60 off. 100$ jeans cost 40$ now. How much do you save? Nothing. You spent 40$. Saving is not about spending less. Saving is about putting money aside.
  7. Calculate the real cost of items. Put the price in working hours. How much do you have to work in order to buy that item? Is it worth it?
