10 Money-Saving Tips that changed my life

[@frmheadtotoe]

How are you guys doing lately??? We've had a lot of ups and downs in terms of finances this year so saving money and managing it wisely has been at the front of my mind (I know, it's not the sexiest topic but it really is so important!) so I wanted to share some of the mindset changes & habits I've made in the last couple of years that have made the biggest impact in saving me money in the long run. Let me know if you already do any of these or if there's an extra tip you want to share!

Hi love your Christmas tree where did you get it? Thanks!

[@frmheadtotoe]

@@Hyasbountifulgarden It's from Home Depot! We just got it and it's 7.5' tall :)

[@Hyasbountifulgarden]

Do you have a list of preventative care that you use or recommend?

[@murcuryjenny]

I've been using google sheets to document how much beauty/skin care products I have. Seeing how much backstock I have prevents me from buying any sets with items that I already have. It helped me alot with this past Sephora sale.

[@chinadollfmd]

I found from being locked down, we stopped eating out, stopped buying clothes and now I am able to pay down debt and started saving.

[@frmheadtotoe]

That’s so amazing!!! Taking steps toward those big goals is pretty life-changing 💪

[@chanraksmeydoung8570]

It’s great ideas 💡.

[@terit8958]

Sometimes when I leave items in my cart to come back to, I’ll get an email from the company with a coupon to finish checking out! An added bonus if you do end up buying and are sure

[@frmheadtotoe]

I’ve noticed this happening SO much! That’s a great tip too 😉

[@Ieticia848]

Great tips! Especially shopping only when you need. The only silver lining to 2020 was that it made me more conscious of my spending habits. I didn’t buy any new skincare and instead used my stockpiled samples and half used, perfectly fine products. I was shocked at how much I have 😳

[@M0r32Lyfe]

Something that has really worked for me is setting a spending allowance for myself each pay check for fun stuff (eating out/going out etc), and having it in cash. It helps me stick to my budget, and the physical visualisation of how much im spending makes me more conscious 👍🏼

I appreciate you making this video during the time we live in. One thing that I started doing recently is buying meals for nearby eateries for takeouts, rather than ordering them from food delivery apps. Those $3-4 saving really add up! I also wanna cook more next year 😊

[@blackeyedsusan727]

Beautiful and terrifically brilliant woman. Thank you, boss! I'm listening to this for the third time. This video will help me to set my 2021 goals! 😊👍

[@vickynesia6731]

Great tips! Some are things that I also already implemented, but some are new to me. Thanks for sharing. (My husband is also the chef in the house. It’s great 😁)

[@PinkyBear]

I definitely have been saving money, sometimes I want a chococlate cake or sweets, but I'll refrain because I need food, not desserts. 0_0

[@ADF200]

Needed to hear this going into 2021. 2020 left me 💸

[@StefanieAnna]

2021 is definitely going to be a year people focus on their finances after everything that happened in 2020. Good tips. If you need more advice and tips be sure to find some great personal finance youtubers and Instagramers (like me 😊) to keep inspired and learning!!

[@avang3785]

Yes!! Love watching decluttering videos. I always find new tips and/or motivation to clean and declutter when I see others do it too.

[@mouakath]

OMG SO HELPFUL! Thank you, Jen! It's funny how such simple tips can help so much!...it's the temptation of WANT vs NEEDS for me lol

[@frmheadtotoe]

Yes!!! I’m always trying to debate that in my head, more so now than ever before

[@bunchi2k]

This was a great video!!! To go along with your tip #2, make a weekly menu plan so you know what you need to put *on* that list. This has really helped my grocery budget!

[@ReeceCaruso]

Great suggestions! This is such an important topic to be discussing at the moment, I really enjoyed the video!

[@tmmle]

Amazing tips! Really appreciate your personal anecdotes

[@xbabiibunnix]

Stemming from tip 8, instead of adding to cart and coming back to it in a week, I usually keep a wishlist on different retailer sites like Amazon to plug in any items I’ve been wanting/needing (but not immediate need) and checking back once in a while to comparison shop and see if it went on sale. Amazon shows me how much it went on discount vs when I first added to my wishlist, which helps me decide when to purchase. :)

[@imairmeli]

I love decluttering videos too.

[@itsmegracekim]

Such helpful and realistic tips! I’ve actually learned several of these lessons in my early twenties and I’ve found myself shopping less and less

[@flowervanessa]

This is such a great video (and perfect timing with holiday shopping). I love the advice with adding things to the cart and leaving it for a week.

[@StacyOh1717]

I watched this right AFTER coming back from the market. I did not stick to the list. 😂😂

[@SincerelyHuong]

Beautiful Christmas tree, Jen! love the two Pikachu ornaments :)

[@frmheadtotoe]

Haha you can guess who put those on the tree ;)

[@debtfreeF]

I LOVE decluttering videos so the Home Edit is heaven for me 😍

[@josijsun]

Love your tips and have been using most of these already too, so yes, we are kindred spirits haha!

[@shanajones6573]

Great tips! Thank you!

[@lelexoxo303]

Ah yes, personal finance, my favourite topic. 😁 Luckily I'm currently doing a shopping ban, that has made it really easy to just not shop. No temptation if you know you can't buy it in the first place.

[@lenguyendieulinh5902]

always be a true fan of you♥️♥️♥️

[@LibbyAudrey]

Yesss I love using iBotta!!

[@bwingbwinggwiyomi]

[@Splentabulistic]

[@pennyl4875]

Lol I can so relate with you regarding skincare, especially your comment about your eyes get so big like either food lol

[@MsPeppercakes]

Me too! I watch decluttering & organizing videos to bring me peace and inspiration to strive to do the same!😂😅

[@hibiscusangel7376]

I stopped buying makeup, clothes, random mall adventures, stopped randomly buying stuff on amazon

[@maryanncatalan471]

Where did you get your Christmas Tree?

[@katrinabryant9873]
