Following the credit card thread, I've learned that some people use credit card points and miles to pay for hotels, that seems pretty interesting.

Children toys being second hands comes to mind too.

What are your ideas?

I use Visible and Tello for phone lines. Have 5 iPhones and pay less than $100/mo.

Buy store brands. A lot of times store brand is cheaper than name brand in bulk at Sam’s/costco.

Buy reliable used cars in cash and learn how to do some auto maintenance yourself.

There are high end thrift stores where you can find barely used quality clothes. Rich people often where them once or twice and then get rid of them.

Date nights in the middle of the week. Lots of places have specials.
