5 frugal ways I live my life that would send other people into a spiral.. but they have helped me go from debt to savings 💸💸
I hang washing outside or upstairs in the spare room. I refuse to pay for a tumble dryer
I take a water bottle with me everywhere I go, I HATE paying for water and buying more plastic bottles
I don't do top up shops I only go to the supermarket once a week. If I forget something I just go without
I put things on my wish list and wait before buying them. I usually find after a couple of days I didn't want it anyway
I check my bank account and credit cards every single day. Some people find that stressful but I need to know where my money is going
small habits like these compound over time and trust me it is possible to pay off debt and start saving from zero 💖 💸
