coupons, of course and only for the things you'd normally buy (duh). bring a calculator and do the math on the price per unit cost, not the price of the actual item. i save quite a few bucks that way. replace all your disposable crap with re-usable stuff. no more sandwich baggies and paper towels, it's tupperware and sham wow from now on (<--that dude's commercial cracks me up!) cold water washings and ONLY when your clothes need it. hang dry. invest in a vac-sealer and buy bulk for everthing from cereal to steak. buy generic. call all your credit companies and try to get a lower rate - long term that's HUGE savings and you'd be surprised how many companies will negotiate. get rid of cable.
