12 Things You Are Spending Too Much Money On

[@ElAgustin]

What's another thing people overpay for?

[@plappin]

Hair care. I've been clipping my own hair for nearly twenty-five years (but then, I was balding badly so it made sense). Plus no need for shampoo or conditioner.

[@skydvdan]

Fast food delivery. Fast food has become more expensive than ever and now people are paying even more to have it delivered (DoorDash, etc). And yet everyone says they don’t understand why they’re always broke. This is part of the reason.

[@victorbaird8220]

Cars and monthly payments 😊

[@Vparks]

Since watching videos like yours. I payed off one credit card and I don’t buy take outs or start bucks anymore.

[@timothy4597]

Powdered laundry detergent is even cheaper than liquid. (if you can find it)

[@lauracastro6649]

Let me tell you this little secret: Branded food products and generic brand products are literally the same, they come from the same company but different packaging presentation. (I’ve worked for one of those companies).

[@sharoncontini3284]

My mother worked for a large commercial bakery. The exact same bread was sold under six different names. The small loaves were 10 for $1 back in the late 60's at the bakery store.

[@p01236-g]

Yeah, but finding out which ones they are is the tough thing. Most generic breads and can foods suck

We lowered ours by $40 and we get the same speed just a hit less data on home internet. No biggie and no overage charges

[@olderandwiser78]

My husband got is degree in food technology. Years ago he told me that the main difference between a brand name canned vegetable and a store brand or generic brand is when they are processed. The first product that is processed and comes off the line is going to be the brand name. After that is processed they do the store and generic brands. That means that the freshest product will be the brand name.

[@simonefeaster5131]

I couldn’t agree with you more about selective grocery shopping. I recently cut my grocery bill by 30% after changing where I shop. Also agree about cars: I bought the best make I could find (Honda) and I’ve had my car for eight years with no payments. Sure, ever year and a half I may have one decent expense on a repair, but that still beats a car payment by a mile! I intend to drive this car until it drops😂

[@Silhouette_Cooks]

Thanks for the informative video. I mostly agree with you, but when I buy food I look for the quality ( e.g., free range eggs, no antibiotics chicken, organic grains & spices …etc.) I try to buy organic vegetables but not all the time. I read what’s in the ingredients before I buy food items, this can cost more money but I am not spending money on junk foods, unhealthy snacks or ultra processed food.

[@MAGGIE-PL-UK]

Free range label doesn't mean free range eggs... they liying about that so much

Just switched to Mint Mobile from Verizon. Suddenly $78/month will now be down to $15. Big yay! For groceries I go with store brands and private labels when possible. Make my own cleaners. The list goes on. My daughter thinks I'm a dork but I'd rather be a richer dork than a poorer dork ... lol.

[@MariaCarattini]

I do appreciate your videos. How ever not everything is just name brand . Is important to read the label. While I love Wal-Mart I will not buy Great Value is cheaper but is lower quality and has way more sodium. Please read the label them make the decision that fits your budget. One thing I will pay is on food cause what's the point of being wealthy while killing my self with bad food. One more thing you got sick from Ecuador water because your gut wasn't used to the bacteria from that water 🤪 most people over there, well in all Latin America drink tap water.

Hello El Augustine! Did you know that you can save even more money on all-purpose cleaning products if you make them from scratch?? Water and a bit of Dawn dish soap (and vinegar for some surfaces) can do the job at a fraction of the cost :) Love your videos! Keep up the good work 👍

[@marianhunt8899]

Agree Austin, clean water is an everyday luxury and one I'm always grateful for.

[@videomgs]

A lot of great tips on how not to overpay for things. Very easy to overpay on cars and not realize it - there are many hidden costs beyond just the sticker price - the more expensive the car, likely the more expensive the insurance, high potential for larger auto loan amounts and for longer durations, perhaps even premium gas requirements and potentially more repairs requiring more expensive parts for replace.

[@vic7939]

Tip for men that need a daily shave. Don't waste money on disposable Gillette. I have used a safety razor for years and use quality razors like Astra Premium for $10 a pack of 100. A single razor lasts for 3/4 uses.

[@gwarlow]

I made the same decision a few years ago - each shave costs around 5 cents (I shave every 3 days). The one time cost of buying a shaving handle and brush/bowl is much less expensive over time than disposible cartridges, and I get a closer shave as well. :-)

[@326159487d]

As a woman, I sometimes buy manly products, like razors. They are stronger, and have sharper blades etc. It last longer than the so called woman's razors. Also men's shampoo tend to be more simple and good for use for woman's hair, without all the fluff around it (and the price). And I love the smell of it :) I like to buy men's socks in one color (black, grey, etc) which I don't find at the woman's socks department. Or.. I have to pay higher prices.. I also buy items in bulk for a whole year (candles, incense, etc) for a cheaper price, or when on sale.

Prepper Princess has a formula for cleaner. In a spray bottle mix 1/10 Dawn dish soap with 9/10 water. The formula stays suspended after you shake it once. I have used that formula for a couple of years now and I really find it useful in comparison to other cleaners.

[@MagicLights555]

Regarding gyms: We don't think the expensive ones will make us fitter. My husband likes working out on his own. He goes to one of those $10/month ones and he's pretty fit. Yet I go to one of the expensive ones because I like having trainers watching what I do, correcting my form, and noticing when it's time to lift heavier. And going to classes means that I *have* to be there at a specific time. No chance for procrastination or putting it off for later.

[@amyk6028]

Another great video El Augustine! I only buy my groceries at Walmart and occasionally I will hit Publix if they have a few really good BOGO deals 👍🏼

[@TheSimArchitect]

Welcome to the Dishwasher Club 🙏🏻⛪🙏🏻 😁 I buy those prepackaged dish washing detergents because they're usually stronger and more effective (I can't find the strong ones where I live otherwise). I use the powder for pre washing, though. Sorry about your car situation. Hopefully you figure something out that cost you less while serving you as well/comfortably. 🙂 You can save money if you have enough cutlery and dishes to fill it up (combined with pots and pans etc, of course) so you can only run a full cycle when it's full. Then, just do a quick pre wash with a little bit of that self dosing soap you mentioned. Getting tons of forks and knives were the best thing I ever did so I am not forced to run the washer to avoid running out of them before the machine is full.

It's interesting that you bring up water, because I live in an area with very hard water. It means I need to add salt to my washer loads to help soften the water, and it also means that if I use typical liquid or powder dish detergent in my dishwasher, my dishes get a nasty gray film on them and never look like they're really clean. So I use a dish pod designed for hard water. I'd much prefer to buy the non-premeasured version of this product, but unfortunately the company doesn't make one. I wait for sales and use coupons to help bring the price down. Someday we may have enough money to spring for a household water softener, but in the meantime we use the product that works best for our needs. Your mileage, as always, may vary.

I bought a new Kia Rio in 2001. The car only lasted 3 1/2 years. After that, I bought another new Kia. It was better, but every time I had the dealership change the oil or do routine maintenance, they would tell me that one of the exterior lights was out. They would charge me for that. I don't believe the lights were out. I think they were just gouging me for money. No more Kias for me!

[@plappin]

Austin, if you, cooking just for yourself, are spending an hour a day doing dishes, you are using too many dishes! LOL But seriously, I agree with everything here but will only add that sometimes it pays to spend more on food, if you're getting fresher, higher-quality and/or organic (i.e., pesticide-free) food. Explore the possibility of joining a CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) where you get fresh organic food every week during the growing season -- in mine, single people usually split a share with someone else as the weekly shares can be extremely abundant. You'll get food of a quality you're not going to find in Walmart. The payoff may be immediate (better taste for a little more money) or more long-term (better health), but it's worth it if you can find the money for it. We drink raw milk from an Amish farm in Pennsylvania -- it's not cheap, but it's wonderful-tasting and better for you than the stuff you get at the local Wawa. Anyway, fun video as always!

El Augustin, another great video my friend. I'm always excited to wake up and find that you've uploaded a new video. My only question is on the dishwasher. Why or how is it saving you an hour a day? I fully expected you to say that you skipped using it because you would just wash your dishes immediately after using them, which for one person is only 5-10 minutes depending on the size of the meal times 3 meals. I would love to get some clarification on that one. I'm sure there is something I'm not considering.

I was about to make the same comment. As a single person, I clean my plate and utensils right after I eat and it's ready for the next meal. It takes only a couple minutes. If you let them sit dirty, it is harder to clean.
