1. Cook your own food. It doesn’t have to be gourmet, but it does have to be homemade. If you buy restaurant food, you are paying for the restaurant itself and the food its cooks make. If you cook your own food, you are only paying you for the ingredients.
2. Make your own clothes. You can save a lot of money by buying fabric and making clothes yourself.
3. Clean your own house. If you work as a cleaner, you are paying a company to do your cleaning for you. If you clean your own house, you are only paying you for what you clean.
4. Buy used. You can buy a second-hand car for half the price of a new one, and you can buy a second-hand house for a tenth of the price of a new one.

6. Make your own clothes. Sewing clothes yourself can save you a lot of money.
