Servant of One asked:


I am trying to live within my means by cutting down and I am a single man who has about 80$ left a month after all expenses are paid off. How can I save this left over money for a rainy day and get some groceries?

    I would check out frugalvillage.com for some tips. I would cut down are bar hopping and drink at home with friends. As for food, eating can be very inexpensive if you learn to cook a little. Dark cuts of chicken are generally under a dollar a pound and can be used to make stock as well. Buy a whole chicken and learn to use all of the parts using the bones for stock. Dry beans are great for protein and are also very inexpensive. Corn, beans, and rice are actually a complete meal providing you with all essential nutrients. Rice can be bought in bulk and cooked very easily. Frozen vegetables in bulk tend to go on sale. Avoid cereal and ready to eat items as they are often more expensive. Avoid buying soda and juices and try drinking more tap water. You’ll be surprised at how much is spent on beverages. The Clean Water Act guarantees that your tap water is safe and often cleaner than your bottled water.
