Reducing the amount of waste you produce will also reduce the amount of money you spend. Cut down on things like plastic baggies, paper towels, and other items that just get thrown in the trash.
Your grandparents did it, and so should you. Reusing items builds on reducing the amount that gets tossed, and saves some money by keeping you from continually having to re-purchase similar items.

Supplementing the food you purchase with food you grow is inexpensive and provides better nutrition. Growing a few tomato and pepper plants doesn't take much time or energy, and will produce fresh, healthful food.
For past generations, eating out was an expense they just could not afford. Cooking at home does not need to be complex or time-consuming, and sitting down for a meal with family is a great way to stay connected.
