Pack A Lunch (Even On Weekends). When you’re out running errands over the weekend, you’re likely to get hungry at some point. But instead of spending money on a trip through the drive-thru, pack a lunch and bring it with you! Keep a picnic blanket in the car so you can enjoy your lunch outside if the weather is nice. 2. Carry A Reusable Water Bottle. Instead of buying bottled water at a vending machine or gas station when you’re thirsty, carry a reusable water bottle with you to stay hydrated, cut down on waste, and save money. Even if you splurge on a high-end bottle, it will quickly pay for itself if you’re no longer buying bottled water. 3. Snack On Homemade Popcorn. Popcorn is incredibly cheap, easy to make on your stovetop or in an air popper, and can save you a lot of money on snacks! A 2-pound bag of popcorn kernels costs under $3 and makes around 130 cups of popcorn, whereas $3 would maybe get you one bag of potato chips. 4. Do A Frozen Food Inventory. When shopping or meal planning, it’s easy to forget about the food in your freezer. To save money by making better use of those foods, take the time to list out everything in your freezer (my [freezer inventory printable]( would be handy here), then post it on your fridge so you don’t forget.
