Money-saving tips
I'm broke, you're broke, we're all broke. Even the smug guy on the balcony with the croissant hasn't got two AmEx gold cards to rub together these days. Tell everybody your schemes to save cash.

Save money by not buying supermarket generic products
Buy Hellman's Mayonnaise instead of Asda Smartprice - it's much nicer. Buy real Kellog's cornflakes instead of Tesco Value, because they taste nicer.
Don't buy cheap shit just because it's cheap. You won't enjoy it as much. Buy the stuff you like, but maybe not quite so much of it.

Make your own mayonnaise,
and roll and toast your own corn. Surely everyone has the time for this?

my mother always used to buy generic own brand rich tea biscuits
Fucking horrible. When we asked if she could buy something nicer, her reply: "No, you'll only eat them"

Choose carefully.
Try different stuff, to find out if there actually is a difference.
For some things yes, others, not-so-much.
Same with diet food.
Most diet foods are a modest number of calories lower than the alternatives, and considerably lower in taste.
A smaller portion of nicer stuff can work better.
