1. Create a budget and stick to it
 • make sure it realistically accounts for your expenses and use cash for daily spending.
2. Search for the best deal on a purchase before you buy
 • compare prices online or shop for discounts.
3. Pay off any debts you have as soon as possible to save on interest.
4. Try to make little lifestyle changes to save money
 • cook at home instead of eating out, use public transport instead of owning a car, etc.
5. Cut out any unnecessary expenses
 • cancel subscriptions you don't use, switch to a cheaper phone plan, etc.
6. Start putting money away in a savings account to save for the future.
7. Look for extra income sources to boost your savings
 • do freelancing or look for a side hustle to increase your disposable income.
8. Invest in savings vehicles like bonds, stocks, and mutual funds to generate extra returns.
