What ways have you found to save money?
On anything, utilities, food, clothes, gas, etc.
For example I buy most of my meat in bulk, and then divide it up myself before freezing it.

I used to have a team of ten haitian boys to carry me around in a sedan chair; now I've cut it down to eight. And I use energy-efficient lightbulbs.

I steal cable. I have a long distance plan. I take transit to work. I only eat out once a week.
I generally don't plan to save money, I just do. I don't really need too but it is nice to cut costs.
For all the money I save, I just shop more! :)
