@X2

some of the things that you can save quickly are on unneeded stuff, number of cable channels, cellphone minutes, long distance calls using calling cards or just skype, going generic for stuff rather than brands for cleaning supplies and other packaged goods. pack your lunches..and if u really want to save, take leftovers for lunch rather than have separate lunch shopping, brew your own coffee rather than hitting starbucks, get a more fuel efficient car, raise your insurance deductibles etc

this

only thing I’ll add, is if you come across sale of any non-perishable item that you frequently use, stock it up (items like paper towel, bathroom rolls, liquid soap etc etc)

Speaking of paper towel, we were liberal users of paper towels form last 8-10 years and always bought BOUNTY but lately we are cutting on paper towels and moving to small washable towels for kitchen use. So from 2 packs of BOUNTY in a month (thats around 24-28 rolls) we are now using 1 pack (or even less) in a month thats saving of around 25$ right there.

and finally, SAVE whatever you can. Before buying house, I was not too keen on cutting corners.

Like “oh ho …5$ bacha ker kia ker lana hai”
or … “Aray yaar , 10$ save hoon gaai month main cell phone plan lower ker k, kia teer mareen gai”

but if you save 5 here, 10 there…its ads up to quite substantial amount.
