If you’re a piece of shit like me and don’t know how to save money, and like to buy shit but can’t save money, well you’ve come to the right place.
Here’s some tips:
- Buy a planner – Yes it sounds counterproductive, but this is my guide so stfu. No, but seriously this is an optional step 1. IF you have an urge to spend money and like buying cute planners, BUY ONE to budget. Use it as an excuse to buy one last thing. Try to stay under $15. REMEMBER, we’re trying to save money. So, no don’t go to Target to buy planners. You’ll end up walking out with 18 TV’s, a chair, and a crib for your unborn child who you will never be able to afford because you went to Target.
- Avoid Amazon-ing at Work – When you’re bored out of your mind, things on Amazon seriously look even more appealing. I honestly have no idea how I end up looking at half the shit I look at. why am i looking at cat beds when I don’t even own a cat.
- Watch out for Groupon deals – be careful of some of these deals. A coupon for a haircut and style could turn out to be $200 more expensive then you intended. Read the terms and exclusions aka read what you’re buying.
- Use CASH MONEY – when it’s so easy to swipe your credit card or use apple pay or whatever – you tend to forget how much you’re actually spending. if you’re planning on going to the mall – withdraw $200 and use that as your mall allowance for the day. if you run out of money and decide to use your credit card, well shit, you really don’t know how to control yourself. idk what to tell you. bye.
- Go to OUTLETS – because i am cheap as hell and buy my “fancy” bags at outlet stores. The Kate Spade Outlet has some amazing deals and they usually even have an extra 15% student discount.
*Warning: This guide is a complete waste of time. lol. just don’t buy shit you can’t afford dumb shit.
Thanks for reading! What are some of your (legitimate) ways of saving money?
