    yes...I often say I do not need the daily coffee or fast food lunch and I can save $50 plus a week....

    just being happy with what I have and not try to buy all the other stuff...save $100 everytime I walk through the mall and do not buy anything

    holidays are tough you want to spend but make something simple and give it to everyone.one year I spent 75one small terra cotta pots good soil rock and broke parts of my jade plant off. wrapped ribbon on potted plant...gave these to about 30 people...great gift for 75 bucks..

    when you get a check account for every dime...

    off the top put 100 in savings...

    you may need to look at cell phone plans and car insurance...drining bills...

    It can be hard to put money aside, especially at this time of year when you want to buy gifts or eat out to celebrate the holidays. I did struggle with bills for a long time.... and old car and elderly sick cats cost a lot of $$ but now I'm better off.

    Of course and since I am retired it is allmost impossible. I don't put money in savings regularly when I was younger and employed but I think one of my Thanksgiving resolutions will be to start. Even if it is just a little, it is better than nothing. Yes you save first and spend what is left...or not.

    Save first, then spend what is left.

    Many people spend first and then save what is left, but there is often very little left.

    No. I automatically have part of my pay saved for me (some in my 401(k), some into a bank account), so I never have to worry about it.

    learning to save and have it become a habit usually starts in childhood it is easier for those of us who learned this young, I have always been a saver and am careful when I spend, anyone can become a saver it takes practice, self discipline, and you need to look forward to and enjoy seeing a bank account grow.
