For me I generally pirate most books I read, although if there is a book I really enjoyed I will buy the physical copy.

I also generally tend to avoid having takeaways because they are just so expensive in this day and age with inflation and tend to opt for cheap meals like pasta or rice etc.

Also I don’t pay for any streaming services, but borrow a VPN service from a friend to pirate the movies I watch.

Curious to hear of some ways that you people here save money.

    I have one exception to this rule and that is Chinese food every other Tuesday. It is one of those places where nobody speaks English so you just know it is going to be good. That and the portion sizes are huge for cheap.

    I might die of a heart attack, but at least I will die happy.

      Definitely get yourself a treat on occasion… just be smarter than me and don’t get it every day!
