OFFICIAL CHEAP BASTARD SAVINGS THREAD

[Anonymous No.8380968]

ITT: Anons, Post your tips for how you saved money (or are currently saving money)
Doesn't have to be specific methods, can also just be a mentality or "mission statement" of sorts
financial freedom isn't all about making the big bux, it's about knowing how to not piss it away, too.

>Acorns app to round up purchases on debit
>all denominations of cash smaller than a $5 bill into a big 'ol jar that gets deposited once a month
>NEVER pay retail for anything if you can avoid it, someone else always has what you're looking for for cheaper
>buy meat on sale, and buy the biggest piece you can (ex. If you want porkchops and roasts, get a whole rib loin and cut it up yourself)
>rice, rice, rice. Rice is cheap as fuck, only needs water and heat to make
>if you are a smoker, play around with rolling your own, or buying a vape
>ordering out food kills the dream $20 at a time
>minimize the amount of shit you own (and stress caused by that shit) by selling a bunch of it
>buy clothes at thrift shops (no its not all ratty poor people shit, I have a duffelbag full of ralph lauren, adidas and air force one's, all purchased at salvation army)
>cancel any subscription services you don't actually use

most of what I know how to save on is clothes and food, because those are the industries I have wagecucked in.

>Skipping a meal never hurt.
>Cans have a lot of recycle value in some states. Don't throw quick money away. Step on them to save space and take 10mins to sell them when you have a few trash bags.
>Work overtime if it isn't too stressful. That's more time earning and less time you have to spend on frivilous crap.
>Running and body weight workouts relieve anxiety and keep you from stress eating, having to do drugs or pay for a hooker if you don't have a gf.
>Being religious isn't just a decent way to gain some guidance, but your elder/pastor/whatever probably has great tips or even connections.

>>Anything with a light on it when turned off is in standby mode and can be unplugged to save on electricity. Anything with a switch is turned off fully so don't waste your time.

Modern kit does not burn an amount of energy worth worrying about. Sure for stuff you don't use daily, leave it powered off. But for TV/monitor etc, you're doing more damage to the unit cycling it's power than you'll ever save in power. We're talking 1c a day here for a house full of gear, and it's just not worth it.

>It takes more electricity to boot a computer and is more dangerous than to just keep it on, just turn off the monitors.

Absolute bullshit. Even laptops are 30W+ to run, versus 0W when powered off or a fraction of 1W on standby. Want to size this up for yourself? Get one of those kill-a-watt meters, they're not expensive.

Everything else is alright, but those bugged me.

PS a bigger tip when it comes to computers is that if you have a gaming PC, don't use it for everyday surfing, only for gaming. Use a tablet or laptop or something else low power for surfing. Saves a bunch on computing power costs.

Regarding heating, it's far cheaper to heat only a small portion of your home i.e. shut off any rooms you don't have to use, and if you spend a lot of time on the computer put it in a small room that you exclusively heat. Also, spot-heating areas of your body is cheaper than heating the air i.e. heating pads are a good idea.

>Always cook from scratch , no premade stuff (contains to much salt anyways)
- Always hustle when you want to buy something.
- If something has no expire date buy large when the deal is good (bought 12 gallons shampoo for example ).
- Buy safety razor from Ali Express and razor blades from Amazon. Now you can shave for 10 bucks a year.

I'm not a cheapskate, I just try to live simply - I hate clutter, broke out of the "acquire stuff" mentality, and buy quality and durability over anything else. I own stuff, and it's good stuff. It lasts. It works. If I don't use it often, I get rid of it. For instance, I have 8 cabinets in my kitchen. Only 3 of them have stuff in them. I have enough plates, cups, glasses, and silverware for 4 people. Enough pots for simple meals. I don't own a toaster.

>No cable - $150 a month for mindless shit, that i don't watch anyway. Haven't missed it, it's been two years.
>Cheapest phone plan I could find for a smart phone, because I rarely use my phone. It does come in handy, so I keep it. I use free wifi for everything outside of the house.
>I cook, so I spend less than $40 a week on food. Rice, beans, potatoes, vegetables, they're all cheap. I eat healthy (and cheap) 6 days a week, the 7th I eat whatever the fuck I want. I don't keep a lot of food on hand, because boredom means mindless snacking, and I have so many fucking grocery stores around me I don't need to 'stock up".
>I put less than 1000 miles a year on my car. I live near the train, I have buses that stop right outside my door, and tons of stuff is walkable. Considering going anywhere requires an hour in traffic, I just rarely go places anymore. I'm considering getting rid of the car, now it's paid off, for a motorcycle.
>Anything in the stores is overpriced because it's "New". Buy last years model, and enjoy steep discounts. Especially clothes. Outlet stores and Goodwill are amazing. If someone can tell you're wearing last year's fashion, they're a cunt and don't matter anyway. Buy quality, so it lasts, and take care of them, especially shoes.
>If you wear glasses or contacts, get the prescription, and shop online. Shit's cheap now.

More:
>Pirate everything. Books, movies, magazine, TV, don't pay. Netflix is the only thing you should pay for - that, and a VPN. There's enough stupid people paying, don't sweat it. I havent paid for a book in years. I can download every bestseller on the list right now - mobilism. org, and Usenet has EVERYTHING.
> Pay for LED for everything, your lights, your monitors, TVS, everything. I have tiny electrical bills because of this.
>Buy generic, especially things like shampoo. Most shampoos and soaps are overpriced, and the only difference is the perfumes. But definitely bathe regularly.
> Stop wasting money on the fast food jew, and the snack food jew.
>One thing I noticed - when I got rid of cable, I stopped wanting shit. It's amazing how much money you save, when you're not being yelled at all the time by ads.
>USE COUPONS. I'm shocked by how many people don't. They exist for a reason - to get you in the door - they're taking a loss on that item, because they're counting on buying more, while you're there. If you go, buy only the product on sale or with a coupon, you've defeated them. COUPON THE FUCK OUT OF THEM. If they have a coupon, use it. If you don't have one, ask for one. I worked in retail during and right after college, and EVERY FUCKING chink and pajeet in the county would come in with our coupons, every time. I'd have chinks have meltdowns if the coupons were expired, or our offer was over.
>If you smoke, definitely vape - and make your own liquids. I vape. I make my own eliquids. A 60 ml clone of my favorite vape is less than $1.50 to make. It's better for you, and cheaper.
>Alcohol. Shit's expensive. I personally rarely drink, your call here.
Most of the money people spend, is out of convenience and laziness. Just make a budget, and look at what you spend every month. I guarantee most people can cut at least 25% and not feel any pain, they'll just need to do a little more, like cooking.

Just walk into any welfare office and tell them your situation. They don't really trace anything. My brother made $12/hr and got $75 for food every month still, they didn't ask hours he worked or anything. You can get money the same way, a few hundred dollars if you're lucky. You'll have to attend a meeting once a month or every few months depending on location, which is like an hour.

That's really fucking lenient compared to Indiana, we have to work at least 20 hours a week or be forced to spend our time in volunteer work while applying for jobs every day (we have to document it too). The amount of work put in for all that doesn't even get you $100 for food, so having a job is more attractive unless you have a lot of kids (then you get a lot of free shit).

What do you guys have for phone bills? My friend was telling me, yeah bro I just get a package with my internet and cell and cable and it's only $350 a month. He spends insane amounts of money on things he only uses once, a few months ago he bought him and his gf some skates that were $500 each because they were on sale from 1k but I don't even know if he's used them more than once. I'm struggling to find a job in my field but I only have $30 on month on my phone bill for talk and text, I just use wifi since everyone has it then I spend $500/month on paying back student loans because I'm a cuck and another $500 on rent. Pro tip- if you live in a city with a decent holding of university/college students you can get a good price on rent by just telling the person you're a student and you can save $200-300 maybe more if you want to live with some other students maybe you get (un)lucky and live with a bunch of sluts.

If you live in the UK, try matched betting. It's hedging free bet offers for guaranteed profits.
Example:
Bookie offers "place a bet £50, get a free £50 bet".
You place the first bet with the bookie and then lay it off on a betting exchange. You usually lose a small amount here (maybe £2).
You then place the free bet with the bookie and lay that off at the exchange. You get to keep around 60-70% of the value.
All tax free and legal.

For US friends: instead of keeping all of your money in a savings or checking account collecting dust buy short term US Treasury Bills. If you start a 4 week ladder you can have funds coming back in weekly if you need cash.

I use republic wireless. Their business model works off the assumption that you'll be connected to wifi for 90% of your usage time so they pass the savings of you not using the network onto you.
When you're out and about it uses the metro network I think. I've never had major problems with it frankly, and I'm almost always connected to a wifi spot except when I'm traveling. I pay for the cheapest data plan (.5 gb) and I rarely ever hit it (I don't watch video when I'm not on wifi, just read shit which doesn't take much), and they refund whatever data you don't use on each bill, so my bill fluctuates. If I were to use all my data (again this never happens to me) I would pay 17.50 I think. It averages about 15 bucks a month.

The best part is my company pays me for using my phone for work, and they pay me 40 bucks a month, so it's like a 25 dollar bonus every month.

I'm shocked at how much people pay for their phone service when options like this exist.

This isn't really as wild as people think, it's not super different from using handkerchiefs instead of tissue (which is something I do). Use 'em for a day, throw 'em in the wash and they're like new.

That being said I probably wouldn't do this cloth toilet paper thing, because shit is gross to me, and the cross contamination risk in the washer seems like a health hazard.

What I really want to do is this:

Bidet bro, please bestow upon me your wisdom... I've been wanting one of these for YEARS but I haven't taken the leap. Where did you get yours? Was it hard to setup? How much did it cost? How exactly does it work? You use the cloth to dry your bottom after the bidet washes the poo off right?

I got a $20 bidet from Amazon. It basically just has a splitter that you hook into the water inlet to the toilet tank, and is a little plastic piece that fits between the bowl and the toilet seat, with a little dial on the side that turns it on and controls the pressure. Nothing too fancy, and was really easy to set-up. The water comes out room temperature and even as it starts to cool it just becomes more refreshing. Yes, the bidet washes off the poo and the washcloth is used to dry. I usually swap cloths every few days anyway, just to be safe. Absolutely recommend. Haven't bought TP in over a year.

I start to lose sanity a bit when I really penny pinch. Part of the problem is that having a social life without spending money is borderline impossible. Anyone have any tips for that? I think my best bet is to ‘pregame’ a bit by straight up eating dinner before going out and then just splitting an appetizer with my gf and having a single beer or something. Is it considered cheap to leave a 15% tip on a tiny bill? Fuck, I hate tipping.

And what are some low-cost adult hobbies? I’m used to just pirating games and playing for free for years on end with my only cost being a custom built PC (also relatively cheap when done right). Now that I’m older I see gaming as a solitary and childish hobby (I still enjoy it but that’s just the way it is). Anyone have any suggestions here? Maybe hiking or something?

One roll of toilet paper lasts me about six months.
I have a special trick to do this ;
1. Take a single paper from the roll.
2. Fold it in half
3. Remove a small piece of paper from the fold in the middle of the sheet. Keep it for later.
4. Put your finger through the hole from step 3 and scoop shit from ass.
5. When you are done cleaning your ass with the finger use the small bit of paper from step 3 to clean under your fingernail.

>implying life is about enjoyment

Life is about winning you little faggot. Who are you to tell me I can't leave my half asian children a massive nest egg?

Side note, ride a bike/take public transit instead of driving. You will save money on gas, repairs and insurance. Cars are also a depreciating asset which require a lot of real estate to hold so if you can avoid buying them at all that is good.

I'm an EMT and we jokingly refer to people on motorcycles as organ donors. You gotta be mad or poor to ride one of those things with regularity.

I've known too many people who have straight up died of it. Like, not even a small number of the people I've personally known who also ride motorcycles.

Cool, make sure you're a donor at least, let someone benefit from your stupidity.

Don't hold your breath. Reflect on your life when you're lying in a hospital bed dying of ass cancer.

Buy the kids meals at IKEA. You get 4 meatballs with fries, drink and apple slices for 3 bucks. The adult plate gives 8 meatballs with mashed and shitty veggies for 7 bucks and doesn't include the drink (another dollar). Do the math :)

Water fasting. Just don’t eat food for a month. Only drink water. When you learn what "true hunger" actually feels like, it will break your psychological attachment to all sorts of things that might be holding you back. No you won’t lose all your muscle (just some, but exercise regularly and you will keep most of it; my body fat % went from like 18 to 10 when I did it.) It’s supposed to promote healing bc your body isn’t spending so much energy digesting food anymore. Also it’s a healthy way to have no food bill for a month.

Recommend buying some Celtic Sea Salt to have with your water (the highest quality salt on the market, for the most balanced electolyte replacement.) You won’t need it in the beginning bc your body can take salt from your shrinking fat cells, but if your weight loss hits a plateau, you will suddenly lose all your energy (i think from not enough salt = low blood pressure), but a pinch of salt and your energy will be restored.

I am not a big guy, kind of got a welterweight boxer’s body, and i fasted for 28 days before "true hunger" hit. I even exercised every 2 or 3 days (short, low rep stuff like pullups. etc). So a fat person should be able to fast for 2 or 3 months, maybe more. The record is over a year.
