Thread for being a based cheap piece of shit. Share your hottest penny pinching tips, anticonsumerist bias, environmentally dubious upcycling, or any number of ways you get dirty looks for saving every dollar you earn.
This belongs on siberia, your consumption habits are not communism.
>>584saving some cash is more money for proles to make ends meet. not siberia
>>583I steal from the supermarket, I reuse all paper as note talking material, I refuse to get rid of clothes until they literally fall apart
Reuse the single-use razor blade waaaaay too many times
>>591I do this as well but I don't think they're literally only supposed to be used once.
>>590You can also usually patch or re-sew clothes as they start to get threadbare. Usually this starts happening in specific parts, with most of the garment still being in decent shape.
>>591>single-use razor bladeGet a safety razor. The disposable blades are cheaper in the long run and you can actually sharpen them if you really want to stretch the budget. They are supposed to last like 10 uses without sharpening. Obviously a straight razor is cheapest but there's a skill floor on using those without hurting yourself.
Just live with your parents forever
>>593this, the blades really do last forever. I spent one 5$ on a 100 pack years ago and theyre still going.
Though mostly I use a corded electric trimmer, its faster and easier for me.
I can share a protip here, I trim my hair for my beard on the floor, not near the sink. This way for cleanup you can just vacuum or sweep up the hair instead of clogging the sink and having to deal with that shit
Also get a bidet instead of wiping your ass with just tp. all you need the tp for is to dry up after
>>593lord is a good cheap cheap brand
i have a lord l6
We use the bones, like those from our rotisserie chicken, to make little dolls, utensils, and decorations.
This saves us on purchasing commercially manufactured products, which are not only more expensive, and worse for the environment, but also of an inferior quality.
Always remember a curse gained, is a curse saved.
>>587Saving money benefits all classes.
If you're into audio you can get insane deals from retards replacing their good speakers with shitty soundbars.
>>1497I did not realize they were that cheap
Bacon being cheap is nice
>>584>your consumption habits are not communismOk then, engage in collective struggle of saving money to buy cheap factory machines from China so you can your homies can seize the means of production
>>1497>watermelon is cheapest>mostly waterlol
>>1498If you get slab bacon instead of the pre-sliced one in the package it can be quite cheap.
>>1503Thanks anon, food is one thing I've always wanted to know how to get as cheap as possible
Is instant ramen for each day cheap in the long run?
>>1505If you shop around perhaps, ive noticed them getting quite pricey for anything that isn't maruchan. Try stores like the Korean supermarkets
You could find some in bulk maybe
>>608boil the bones instead and make a soup
>>1506>If you shop around perhaps, ive noticed them getting quite pricey for anything that isn't maruchan. Try stores like the Korean supermarkets >You could find some in bulk maybeAw fuck
Is bread still cheap?
The items for a sandwich shouldn't be that expensive, maybe 10$ to last a week
>>1508I get a loaf of store brand bread from my grocery chain for about $2.50
Look into rice, you can get a big bag from mexican/latino stores for cheap my gram used to do that.
>>1505uygha literally just buy actual noodles in bulk packs, the right types cook in less than two minutes (less stove cost), and it encourages you to put actual nutrition in there instead of salt, salt n salty.
daily reminder that the dominant flavor in indome mee goreng is MSG. Taste raw MSG crystals and you will know I'm not joking.
>>1497>doesn't even list a country or dateterrible chart. absolutely disgusting. the fact that you reuploaded it on this site is worrying.
Therea an app called Too Good To Go, it let's you buy like a mystery bag of food from stores that's close to its expiration date. It depends on the store but at my grocery store we give some nice shit for cheap, its supposed to be $30~ worth of product for $5 last time i checked.
Here's one. I call it the Amazon Forever Warranty.
Say something you own breaks or wears down. Just buy the same item on Amazon and return your old one for a full refund. I have abused this policy for years. I think below a certain price threshold, they just don't care because I've sent returned incorrect items with no question. I must have stolen several thousand dollars worth of merchandise by now.
