Living on a budget

It can be hard to survive if youre a student or single person on a low income.
Thats why i suggest getting used to shopping smart and buying the generic brands which are usually just as good but substantially cheaper.

  1. I wish I could live on a budget but I've spent so much on Magic: The Gathering that I can't.

  2. I'm currently studying abroad in Germany, and living on my own over here, I'm having to conduct a budget to make sure I'm not overspending and such. Penny Markts are my usual shopping place for food and other stuff.

    Also, the beer really is cheaper than water, IF, you buy it at the right place.

  5. The best tip I think, is finding ethnic markets (asian, eastern european, etc) because they cater to a group which is much smarter about shopping, so you can find better deals on higher quality foods. The asian supermarket I hit up has entire ducks for like 6$, you can get amazing cuts of beef for half price, they have "buy four for half price" deals on EVERYTHING. Shit is so cash. Literally.

  6. What ULTRA said. Just use your head while shopping(instead of going to McFatasses go buy yourself a kilo of rice)
