Ronald Nelson+FollowBudget Renter HacksThese are some budget rental hacks that you can do. Painting your walls will make a big difference in your room and you don't have to paint all of the walls you could do an ascent wall. I painted my room just these two walls and the rest I left it white. If you cant afford to get a new couch, I will recommend using sofa covers. This will help for you to change the color of your couch and to make it look newer. Change your lightbulbs to Smart lightbulbs, this will help for you to have ambient lighting and it will make your home feel more cozy. #hometips #apartmentdecor #budgethacks540Share
Joseph Wood+FollowYour Weirdest Frugal Habit That Works?We all know the standard frugal advice: buy generic, cook at home, stick to a budget, etc. But what about those quirky, maybe a little weird habits that actually save you real money? Here are a few of mine: Condiment hoarder: I save every takeout ketchup/soy/hot sauce packet. Haven’t bought bottles in over a year. Lotion surgeon: I cut open "empty" lotion bottles — there's always another few days’ worth inside. Toothpaste bobby pin method: I roll it tight and clip it with a bobby pin to squeeze out the last bits. Old T-shirt > paper towels: I use worn-out shirts as rags. Cuts down on waste and I don’t have to keep buying paper towels. Not glamorous, but effective. So let’s hear it: What’s your weird but wonderful frugal habit that just works? Bonus points if it’s something you think most people overlook. Let’s crowdsource the weirdest ways to stretch a dollar. #FrugalLife #MoneySavingTips #WeirdButEffective #BudgetHacks #CheapWins #LifeOnABudget #rFrugal 264Share
Richard Figueroa+FollowMy $3 Feast When Broke But Craving TakeoutLet's be real - sometimes you need the dopamine hit of eating out without the guilt of actually spending money. My ride-or-die? Two McChickens slapped together into an ghetto McSandwich. $3.25 of pure bliss that somehow feels fancier than it should. But I'm evolving. Recently discovered: • 7-Eleven taquitos + nacho cheese ($2.50) • Taco Bell's cheesy bean & rice burrito ($1.29) • Grocery store rotisserie chicken torn apart with bare hands in parking lot ($5) The magic isn't in the food - it's in the ritual. That intentional "I'm treating myself" moment, even if my wallet's crying. What's your broke-but-need-to-feel-alive meal? Bonus points if it comes with free shame. #BrokeFoodie #BudgetHacks #PovertyGourmet #TreatYoSelf3915Share
