Money Saving Tips / Ideas

The current federal minimum wage in the USA is $7.75. Where do you get $2.13/hour.

This was already covered

Nobody is making them work that job.



I'd prefer a fixed price vs some poor me guilt trip thats laid on every customer that walks in the door.

Nobody is making you go out to eat.

WalMart and many local grocers offer free curbside pickup these days and it has been a big saver for our household. Shopping on the app eliminates the impulsivity as you have to search for each item and add it to your cart rather than walking up and down the aisles and seeing/buying things you weren't originally there for just because they caught your eye. Additionally, you can check what you have as you shop and eliminate duplicates without having to memorize your entire pantry and fridge.

Along the same lines, Walmart ran a promotion where a year of their Walmart+ premium subscription was only $50. That includes grocery delivery if you're within their radius. I spend more than $50 in gas per year if we go to Walmart every weekend in addition to vehicle wear/tear so that was a no-brainer.

Walmart+ is legit! saves me a lot of gas money living in the country. We are 20 minutes from town and get free delivery, they have the 49$ per year sale on currently also. Complete no brainer

Cancel gym membership work out at home...

I canceled my $25/month gym membership. . .
and then bought $3,000 worth of gym equipment for my garage. haha

Not necessarily money saving, but the convenience is nice.

Just gotta work out using all that equipment for the next 10 years to break even!
