[@Loriloraine]

Kyra, anytime I feel tempted to make a stupid purchase I come to your videos lol. Thank you for keeping it real and being so down to earth. Most KZbinrs out there just make you wanna spend money.

[@Kyraann.]

Aww thank you Lori 🥹🤍 for appreciating what I do here on KZbin. I don’t get many comments like this and it truly warms my heart.

[@Luna19942_]

Same here! I took Kyra's saying: "Work with what I have" and it helps a lot

[@shermarkham6376]

I would love a part 2. Ive been a subscriber since you worked at the nursing home. Im always learning from you. Thank you, Kyra Ann! 💐🙂

[@Kyraann.]

Thank you Sher for still being here even after all these years🤍 I truly needed that kind of love tonight 🥹. Thanks again!!

[@SusieQZee]

It’s called vampire energy when you keep things plugged in. I used to unplug everything but the fridge when I was struggling, now I still only plug in the washer and dryer when I use them. And I try to just air dry my clothes and pop them in the dryer for the last 10 minutes to soften.

[@Kyraann.]

Ok now that’s the perfect term for it 🧛🏻‍♀️😅. Definitely team air drying!!

[@CarlaVillalbaG]

Great tips, Kyra! As for reusable cotton pads and similar items (like reusable makeup sponges), I would actually recommend going for lighter colors. I know it's not cute to see the stains, but with black it's harder to notice if they're actually clean or have grown mold. For example, I try to always wash my reusable pads/sponges after every use, but sometimes I have washed them at night, and when I wake up they haven't fully dried, especially when the weather is very humid. I would also recommend to stock up on items whenever you can, especially those that tend to increase in prices regularly and can last for a longer time, like canned food or hygiene items. And it's also useful to have inflation rates in mind when budgeting for the following months. Last year, inflation in my country was 234%, and that's the lowest it has been in the last 4-5 years, so yeah, I've been struggling with that for a long time.

[@lourlopezsk]

I live in a country with inflation every single day so prices rise every week and sometimes twice a week. I'm so used to this since I was born 😂 Keep up the good work, Kyra. Hugs from Argentina 🇦🇷

[@user-rg2sy3ir7f]

You are so wise! I love how you said "we are on a mission." You are so clear on what you want. Lots of great advice.

[@antoniajo3601]

Thanks for the wonderful tips!!! You need to make these videos once a week! These are so helpful. I have 3 friends that have more than one job. It's horrible how the prices keep rising, but our pay! Ugh. I hope you know how amazing & important you are. You are helping many of us. I seriously want to give you a big hug. Thank you. Keep staying positive & happy. You are making a positive difference. Know this.❤

[@michellelee6672]

You and shelbizleee make me spend so much less money! I’m also on a weight loss and financial journey. I’m so blessed to be able to continue both of my journeys so far without too many challenges (knock on wood). Im also rooting for you girl! ❤

[@jennylgarciajlg79]

Budgeting is not boring. My husband and I eat in 95% of the time. We only buy Christmas gifts to the kids in our family.

[@user-3l1]

I live in a country where inflation is a "normal" part of our life since I have memory. One way I save is by buying extra food and daily products now before the price rises.

[@Kyraann.]

GREAT IDEA Eli!! Which food do you purchase/stock up on. Lately I’ve been consuming a lot of fresh produce since I’m on a weight loss journey and I find so hard to save money while purchasing fresh produce/healthy food items.

[@user-3l1]

@KyraAnn. I stock up on rice, different types of beans, some cans, teas, food I eat regularly 🙂 and things like cleaning products. Regarding fresh produce, I freeze vegetables. I chop the vegetables and put them in the freezer for a night in a hermetic container, then store them in plastic bags. Most vegetables can be frozen and used to cook, except green leaves, potatoes... This also saves time 😉

[@lourlopezsk]

Anyone from Argentina? 🇦🇷🙋🏻‍♀️ The description sounds familiar 😂

[@aubreytoms6823]

Thank you for doing this video! I’ve been watching your content for a while now and appreciate all of your minimalist tips after I fell off the lifestyle bandwagon accidentally during the pandemic when people were panic buying. Working back towards simplifying again right now during inflation and living with non-minimalist parents, so thank you for the re-inspiration! I’m happier this second time around of going minimal because it feels balanced, not deprived or getting rid of too much. The first experience was like yours, in that I went too deep too fast and regretted it. Your content reminds us we can always try again, so cheers!

[@polonap3129]

Great video like always Kyra. Been watching your old videos as well for some cleaning motivation (in your previous apartment) much love from Slovenia ❤.

[@mtndewdev]

some reusable items Ive purchased is the diva cup (changed my life, Im in love lol) cotton pads, makeup remover wipes, straws, static dryer balls, paper towel clothes, sponges, sandwich bags, silicone baking sheets, silicone air fryer basket

[@jennylgarciajlg79]

Ive been on the route of being reusable home stuff, like reusable shower liners, reusable drying mat, reusable makeup cloth cleaner, reusable dish sponge.

[@estefanyhernandezbaltazar9527]

I was able to save money because I moved two hours away from everyone I know. I don't have dinner with friends or family. I don't have time to travel to the city. Yes I get very lonely but as I get older it's not that bad. Not only that, with my very close ride or die friends I can just have a video chat for hours and it's like we hung out without spending money as we eat, clean our homes together and we've even watched movies while being on a video chat. I've avoided spending minimum $300 a month I agree with the Thanksgiving and Black Friday situation as well as the true history of it. So I get it! - I've avoided spending minimum $500 doing this for thanksgiving. Gift giving holidays were purposely created by businesses, gift giving I've cut off as well and I only give birthday small gifts to my primary household and best friend. I am the one from work that doesn't participate with pitching in for monetary gifts because $20 per person per birthday adds up especially if there is five birthdays in one month. I've avoided spending at least $2,000 a year by not participating with holidays or everyone's birthday.

[@melanieovalles5254]

The machines in my building are $2.50 to wash and $2.50 to dry. I started handwashing some stuff and hanging it to dry. Times are tough these days lol😢

[@Kyraann.]

I here ya Melanie! I hand wash my bras, sometimes socks and even some leggings if I can.

[@ashleyanderson4821]

My fav reusable items: quality water bottle, dryer balls, period panties & menstrual cup, bidet & cloth to wipe the water (literally I don't use TP anymore), silicone baking sheets/cupcake holders/bags/can or pot covers, also got a reusable duster, and I will vacuum or clean Air filters or air purifier filters before buying new ones. Honestly, I also will clean & repurpose tin cans of usually tuna or mushrooms & turn them into propagation cans or water containers for my plants to drink from the bottom. I also now use my coffee grounds twice, then put them into empty containers until they're full, & try to add some to my plants, or into compost. I've taken several large coffee containers & created "compost bins" out of them, to live on our apartment balcony. We also have been moving to reusable containers then refill them for things like laundry detergent, cleaners, etc. I love your tips, we do some of the same. When my hubby works, we plan for him to pick up groceries and/or meds on his way home to save on gas (we'll order online like tree might before with a pick up time, then they'll bring it all out to the car at the designated parking spot - it really helps with anxiety, & keeps us from impulse buys). For groceries, we try to really use coupons & buy things on sale, then make sure we actually eat all of it. One tip - we save our coins (if we're using cash), & we use a thing called Acorns to set aside money into investing. Just have it auto pull like $5+ when you say to, & also it can round up your purchases then take that extra cash put into your portfolio. Hubby & I each have one where we can pull money out, for like emergencies, & 1 for retirement. I also set up 1 for my 2yr old niece that she can't touch until she's 18 or so. Just knowing we have it there, collecting miniature cash & investing for us has taken a lot of stress off our minds as money gets tighter. It's our backup.

[@Kyraann.]

ABSOLUTELY LOVE ALL OF THESE Ashley!! Thank you so much for sharing🤍

[@stephanienoble2926]

Such good tips! That’s exciting you’re saving for a house. When we bought our first house our credit union matched us to a certain amount that we saved for a firm payment and we also applied and got a couple grants that helped too, you should look into whoever you bank with and see if they have a money match program.

[@fitzpleasure3521]

Great video, im waiting for part 2 ❤

[@hotpinkgirl30]

Love these videos as a reminder to save money. You're awesome girl! I'm an outfit repeater, I'm slowly switching to reusable items. And when it comes to beauty services, I do it all myself. Letting the sun naturally lighten my hair instead of chemicals that seep into my brain. For any blondies that want natural highlights lemon juice and chamomile and some light sun exposure daily.

[@Kyraann.]

Thank you Cynthia 🤍 it’s so crazy how much crap I get with being online and wearing the same thing over and over again 😅. Glad I’m not alone with repeating outfits 🙌🏻

[@hotpinkgirl30]

@Kyra Ann I appreciate your real honesty. It's nice being able to relate to others.

I use reusable Qtips. The cotton used to cause me pain. The plastic does what it needs to do then I spray it down.

Unplugging is life. My electric bills were always less than $15 a month. I use reusable pads & I use the napkins from takeout places. I have a Swifter wet jet & I got a reusable pad that can be washed in the washing machine.

Yes!!! I never, ever throw out the extra napkins given with take out food. But...I normally use washable napkins. Thank you for mentioning this ❤️

[@Zigkiss]

I am a trip planner too, I hate it when my husband and I go out and he drives around randomly wasting time and gas. One good thing is the small grocery store we have on his way home from work so at least we save that way, he picks up little things on his way home if we need it. You should try threading yourself. I learned it off youtube and it's easy and cheap. I wish I had your brain, I have my drawers and closet filled with clothes plus about 4 or 5 big rubbermaid bins in the basement filled with summer and winter clothes. Every time I try to go through it I remember the way something looks on me and I can't get rid of it ( even if I haven't worn it in a year or more and probably won't in the next year) I would love to have a minimalist wardrobe but my brain won't let me lol. I also work from home and while I do actually dress every day, even more reason I don't need 90% of the clothes I have. One bonus is my daughters fit in the same size as me right now so at least I can say my clothes are for 3 of us instead of just me.

[@Ramidra]

I like to bake a cake for my 3 family mothers. My mom and 2 sisters. If they can make it. I think its nice. And enough. Usually cake still costs a lot - ingredients. And time consuming. But thats my gift. If its sunny, we will go out in the garden and just eat it together. 😊

[@briserenity]

For personal reasons I don’t care for holidays but I let my kids draw a picture for the holidays and put it on the fridge lol that’s my holiday decor and a throw blanket in the couch that fits the season. 🥰😂

I heard that this is an occurring issue when it comes to certain channels 😔. This is probably one of the main reason why my channel has been been doing so poorly this year. I swear KZbin hates recommending channels that help others live a more simple lifestyle. Anyways thank you so much for always coming back 🥹 and for sticking around.

We do grocery pick up instead of going into the store. After dropping off my daughter I pick up our groceries, get gas plus wash the car. It saves us money and time. I love your channel girl it sad to hear your making pennies for your hard work. I know how time consuming video creation is. Have you looked into work from home jobs or gig jobs to increase your income? Things like secret shopping or virtual assistant. Youve mentioned that a regular job takes away freedom but it seems that KZbin takes away our creative freedom. We become a slave to the algorithm and what everyone wants its hard to please everyone. I see you trying and you deserve so much more.
