I do this minus the quarter pound bun. Didn't know u could do that.
I pay with exact change cause I hate carrying change around.
steal tp/paper towels from work
I use my work printer to print personal things.
I hate tipping but I still do tip. I usually only tip big for my barber or tattoo artist.
Never thought of it to be the same but I will now purchase the store brand products

Honestly I just exercise common sense when I make a purchase.
1. Unless I'm strapped for time, I buy my food and drinks at grocery stores like Fry's(Kroger in other parts of the country) and Costco. Safeway and Albertsons are too expensive for me.
2. When buying clothes or shoes I'll try them out in the store and almost always find them cheaper online.
3. Slickdeals usually has decent deals on things like socks, undershirts and boxers
4. Never buy anything from Best Buy unless its extremely discounted. 99% of my electronic purchases happen online
5. One thing I've learned over the years is that quality is important. When I buy something I want it to last awhile vs buying something cheaper and replacongnit several times. There is nothing wrong with spending a little extra for proven quality and longevity

I'm pretty good with math off the top of my head, so when I'm in the grocery store I'll compare weights of food products to make sure I'm getting the most relative to the weight/price.
never buy napkins for the apartment or the car, just use the ones i get from fast food restaurants
never order drinks while out, always water.

I think im quite wasteful actually, I dont try to save paper towels or whatever, I have that buy new mentality.
Only penny pincher I do is never buying ketchup cause I rack up the packets from wherever I go. I also grab sugar packets for coffee when im at a cafe and some plastic spoons and forks. Usually leave it in my bag incase I forget to bring a spoon to work.

I prefer to drink water while I eat, even if I have to buy bottled water. Drink a soda or shake afterwards.
But I do a lot of stuff posted like reusing paper towels as long as theyre just moist with water.
Got hella rubber/plastic tupperwear from the chinese joint.

It's harder to be cheap than spend money on paper towels or whatever. My dad was reallllly cheap growing up and I don't *** with him so I think naturally I'm the opposite because I never want to be like him.
