1. I do my own mani/pedi. yes i know, who doesn't want to be pampered. but do you know how much you save. i use to go to the nail salon every 2 weeks. now i do my own thang. i have nail clippers, nail filers, cuticle nippers, polish, everything I need to do it myself. today, i did tell myself that i would go to the nail salon because i was feeling lazy. but i will only do that a few times in the year. i haven't been to the salon in about 6 months and my nails are on point - don't get it twisted. i do my sister's mani/pedi. Dont know how to go to the best resource ---- YOUTUBE!
2. check out your local thrift store, marshalls, target, ross, sale and clearance rack. you can't tell me nothing. i love clothes but i really love them when i get a great bargain. my mom is in the second hand clothing business so she is always striking gold. my mom has given me so many nice outfits from the thrift store. just yesterday she gave me a dress (that was never worn) that had a price tag of $209.00 and she brought it for about fifty cents yes FIFTY CENTS! dont sleep on the thrift store/target/marshalls/ross/etc. they have the bomb stuff, just go to these location when the kiddies are at school and the adults are at work. you find the best stuff when you are focused!
3. bring lunch from home. pack your own lunch. thank God for my momma! my momma cooks food every day, we can have leftovers in the fridge and she will cook more food. Crazy, i know but thank God for my momma. I bring my own food to work, so I don't have to spend money during lunchtime. Eating out every day adds up.
I'm trying to get in the habit of working in the realm of necessity. Do I really need new winter boots when I live in Miami? Really. These are questions you need to ask yourself. In what realm are you working in? Want? Emotions? Implusiveness?
still chasin'
