Planning to have a super tight month this month in order to pay for 2 important birthdays and still save money. It is actually not that difficult at the moment, I think you get use to consumption for the sake of consumption.
When you really think about it it is not difficult to not buy that coffee or chocolate bar. This month I'll not buy any take out coffee (a tall, skinny latte is nearly £2!), no magazines at all and I have already started walking home from work whenever I can. It does take me 1 hour 20 minutes to walk so I doubt this is something I'll do everyday but a few times a week will soon add up.
I will mainly try to eat from our well stocked fridge and larder with the exception of fresh fruit and vegetables and milk of course! It's lucky I'm detoxing at the moment as that saves me money on alcohol, snacks and being without that coffee is not so bad as part of a detox as it is as part of a savings plan. Have surfed the internet for cheap and tasty recipes and tomorrow I think I'll have a bean and tomato soup, very easy to make, healthy and above all extremely cheap especially as I have all the ingredients at home.
