As a couple we work pretty hard to pinch pennies every where we can, we were kind of forced into frugality. Sometime I might tell that story on the blog but I dont feel like hashing it out tonight.. Anyway here are the top 5 ways I save cash.

1. I maintain a strict lunch budget – If I have sushi (my favorite) this is the only meal out I have that week.
2. Don’t buy coffee – I try so hard not to buy coffee out. Most days I succeed and make it only in the office or at home. This saves me hundreds of dollars per year since I would often buy coffee daily when we were both able to work outside the home.
3. Sell something to buy something – I love new tech! When a new gadget comes out that I want, I sell a bunch of old gadgets to buy it.
4. Refuse to buy on credit – We pay cash for everything. I use my debit card as much as possible so I can track every penny I spend in Quicken.
5. Invite friends over instead of going out – we love playing board games so we will often spend hours with friends enjoying their company at out home.
