If you really want to save money
Don't take any money to work, don't take your debit/credit cards either.

Take a packed lunch, drink water or make your own drinks, eat fruit as a snack.

Walk or cycle if you can and never contribute to collections for weddings/babies/leaving etc.

Shop in charity shops, don't EVER buy a newpaper, give up smoking, don't go out...

...and never buy anything new unless YOU HAVE TO.

Never buy on credit, don't take out loans - be happy with what you've got.

If you have to get married, do it on the cheap! Don't give a flying fuck what other people will say/think - it's YOU that'll be paying for it for the next ten years.

Do a shopping list AND STICK TO IT.

Spuds go a long way, so do carrots and cabbages.

Think Middle Ages and you won't go far wrong.



Of course, your life may well become dirty, brutish and short, but at least it'll be cheap.

When I was
a kid, no matter how many applications I filled in, nobody would give me a credit card.

It was when I grew up that it all went to shit.
