Ways You Can Embrace Frugal Living

In this story, I’ll share the whys and hows of frugal living. Then, I’ll get you inspired and motivated by sharing my 53 favorite frugal living tips. Ready to start saving? Let’s go!

Tally up the Savings

Keep a running tally of the money you’ve saved. (It might be fun to display your progress using a coloring sheet or wall chart.)

Start making plans to put your savings to work (or enjoy a portion of it)! This can also help to keep your motivation high and feed the virtuous cycle of frugality.

Make Plans for the Savings

Save big on transportation costs by living in an area that’s walkable and/or bikeable. By avoiding the need for a car.

Live in a walkable/bikeable area

This frugal living skill not only saves you money but time and stress as well. (No more coming home and wondering what’s for dinner!)

Meal plan

Buy discounted food

We use Flashfood regularly, and it saves us 50% or more on quality, still-tasty groceries.

Use the toaster oven instead of the wall oven, the Instant Pot instead of a pot on the stove, the hand mixer instead of the stand mixer. This saves you energy and, in turn, money!

Use the smallest appliance possible
