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 live very close to a target and dont have a car so its my main grocery store location.

    ive honestly never been poor enough to justify the risk of stealing but i also have crippling anxiety and even the thought of it going wrong is too much.

    shit id prolly turn around if the sensors started to beep id be like “yoo sorry i didnt know haha plz don’t hurt me” the irony is im not afraid of physical pain, more the financial pain. coz im a shredded rock climber/calisthenics guy. sadly violence just gets people into more actual trouble. otherwise my roommate would be very worse for wear though we gave him an apartment warning instead (of a beating).
