]]>When picking a destination for a long-term stay, go with places where you won’t have to break the bank. Do your research and make sure that accommodation, food, public transportation, and other major expenses come with a low price tag.
Speaking of accommodation, apartments with a monthly rent will cost you much less than day-to-day accommodation, so try to find an affordable deal.
Unless you have tons of money saved up, staying somewhere long-term is only an option if you’re earning enough money to cover your expenses. That’s why you should make sure to work remotely or try looking for a job once you reach your destination.
Sticking around in one place for longer is a great way to immerse in the local culture, but it can also help you lower your expenses. As time goes by, you’ll discover where to shop, eat, and go out for cheap, keeping your expenses on the lower side.

]]>There are many ways to treat yourself that don’t require spending any money. These include taking advantage of loyalty programs or rewards and finding free entertainment like library cards or festivals.
Some ways to splurge without it harming your bank account are to eat in before heading to your local bar for drinks, buying one expensive food or drink item per week, or purchasing a nicer product every so often. Once a month buy that expensive wine you love or treat yourself to a brand name beauty product instead of drug store ones.
There are always larger purchases that we can’t seem to live without, whether it’s a new smartwatch, designer boots, or weekend getaway. So instead of feeling guilty about spending money on these things, save up for them. Put aside some money each time you get paid or gather up loose change in a jar and let the money accumulate for a couple of months. When you’ve reached the amount of money you need for that item you absolutely want, go ahead and buy it! You deserve it.

]]>Road trips are much more fun when your friends join you for the ride. In addition to providing you with some good company, they’ll also help you cut the costs of gas, food, and accommodation because you’d be splitting the bill.
You can save money on food by packing a couple of snacks or even bringing a portable mini fridge along. If you’re going to spend the night, make sure to book accommodation in advance, or find a cheap or free camping ground.
Gas and parking will be two of your biggest road trip expenses, so make sure to approach them wisely. Research your options in advance if possible, and maximize your gas usage by watching your speed, only bringing necessary luggage, and turning the AC off.

]]>When looking for a DIY project to commit to, search for tutorials that utilize materials you already have. There’s no need to throw old shoe boxes and bottles away if you put your imagination to work and make something new with them.
When searching for new materials for your DIY projects, try not to pay a full price. Visiting thrift stores and garage sales is always a good idea, but you should also search for affordable prices online.
Before embarking on a new DIY adventure, make sure you have all the necessary tools. If you don’t already own or can’t borrow some of them, think twice before buying them—especially if you’re not going to use them on a regular basis.

]]>Throwing away or donating shoes shouldn’t be your first inclination if you’re someone who wants to save money and produce less waste, try these fixes instead!
Sneakers can have a totally different look based on the cleanliness of the shoelaces. Before you throw your sneakers away because you think they’re dirty, take out your shoelaces and give them a good washing and see if that doesn’t bring them back to life.
Shoe polish is essential to keep leather shoes looking brand new. All you have to do is brush the loose dirt off, use an old cloth or another brush to put the polish all over, and let them dry. It’s super cheap and easy to do this at home, and you’ll be able to keep your shoes for years or even decades!
If you have suede shoes, make sure that you buy formula to waterproof them! This will help them last longer and it will protect them in the rain.

]]>However, though second-hand shopping is almost always cheaper than buying things new, a lot of second-hand stores are doing something to make their stuff even cheaper.
On specific days of the week, big retail second-hand stores have killer discounts you don’t want to miss out on. A lot of stores will have a day for seniors where they get a certain percentage off and there is usually a day where everything, or almost everything, in the store, is half off.
If you were not already hooked on buying second-hand, you should really take a look at your local charity shop to see if there are any discount days that you can participate in. The best thing to do is arrive as early as possible before it gets crowded, and you will be sure to find deals that you will have to see to believe.
