For me I generally pirate most books I read, although if there is a book I really enjoyed I will buy the physical copy.

I also generally tend to avoid having takeaways because they are just so expensive in this day and age with inflation and tend to opt for cheap meals like pasta or rice etc.

Also I don’t pay for any streaming services, but borrow a VPN service from a friend to pirate the movies I watch.

Curious to hear of some ways that you people here save money.

    Fascinating how many answers are that just straight up stealing is a “creative” way to save money… O.o

    Moral quandaries aside, I’m not sure that I would describe shoplifting as “creative”.

      Funny how people the same folk who put themselves on a moral pedestal and preach about how “its everyone else thats greedy” are the same that have no quandries about theft.

      Stealing is one thing - lazy.
