Sup /biz/,
I'm broke. What are some ingenious shortcuts you use to reduce the amount of money you spend in costly situations?
I have a mate who uses an app to call Australia, for example.
I train-split from time to time but I'd love to see whether /biz/ has any more ideas.

If you eat only ramen for an entire year, 3 meals a day, you only spend $140 on food each year.

Learn how to cook, seriously, if you are not cooking you own meals (and buying cheap produce) you're throwing away money, google "good and cheap" for a pdf with recipes that give you nutrition for under $4 a day

Anything else, really.
>Take shorter showers to cut down HEAVILY in the electric bill, some people take 30m hot showers to "relax"
>In this same vein, turn down the heat and use a sweater
>Put a filled water bottle on your toilet's box, save water with each flush
>Stop smoking

This is a good one. If you're not budget conscious about your eating choices, its easy to spend hundreds of dollars a month on food.
Also, create a spreadsheet and track your cash flow for a few months. Put every single transaction in there. You'll soon see where all of your money goes and you'll know where to focus on saving.
Projecting expenses and income really helps. For example here is my guess as I prepare to move out.
