Adopt a simpler hairstyle that doesn't require frequent trimming in order to look good. Getting your hair trimmed every three to four months instead of every month could save you $250 to $600 or more a year. Getting less frequent perms can double that savings.

Don't waste big bucks on a wide assortment of cleaning supplies. Baking
soda and vinegar can do almost any cleaning job just as well as the expensive store-bought cleaners, for a fraction of the cost.

Just because you have a car at school doesn't mean you have to use it
everywhere you go. Walk or bike whenever possible. You'll feel more energetic, stay fitter, and save money on gas, parking, and wear and tear on your car. Save the car for longer trips, grocery shopping, or bad weather.

The rule is simple on making money and saving money. Do it now, do it now. Don't make more liabilities for yourself
How to Save Money and Be Frugal
Step
1
Learn to wield a needle and thread well enough to sew on a button, hem a pair of pants, or fix a small tear. Otherwise you'll waste money buying new clothes you don't really need just because of a minor problem like a loose button.
Step
2
Limit your online shopping. When you make a purchase online, record it
in your check register or on a log of credit card purchases so you can keep track of how much you've spent that month. Online purchases can become
addictive because you don't feel like you're spending real money, and they can add up very quickly. Keeping a list provides a reality check.
Step
3
Use your computer to make greeting cards. Most computers come with
free programs that can be used to make all sorts of cards, or you can buy greeting card software (a onetime purchase), or use clip-art or original photos and create your own images for the cards. You'll have fun, receive compliments on your creativity, and save $2.00 to $4.00 per card.
