Somewhat same, but for me I’m just trying to cook more at home. Not necessarily save money. (Though it’s still nice.) Have you compared the costs? It could be that even if you throw out half it’s still cheaper, ya know? Or maybe closer to breaking even than you realize.
I wouldn’t call it that. I would say it’s living within your means. For example not going to Starbucks everyday. Coffee and creamer is $15 and lasts a month. That’s only 1 coffee for some people at Starbucks.
The point is that both are the same as “save money” when they should be giving more specific advice. Two pieces of good actionable advice have been given by you. “Just save money” is not a useful tip for “how to save money”. What you’re saying is useful.
Also this is pretty stupid to say because it basically just means spend less money. Yeah, no shit.
I mean it’s a little more nuanced than that. There’s a lot of ways to reduce costs. For me, not eating out is the biggest saver of money.
Every time I try this, half the food goes bad and I save nothing. Yes I am using a fridge.
