To be honest, I don't put too much energy into saving money, my plan is to spend money for necessary stuffs. Only, then If I know that I'm going to travel next month & spend more money, so in that ease, I plan before travelling to save money by sticking into a plan that I only spend a certain amount of money every month, but that always doesnt go with the plan.
I guess I mostly spend money on clothes, food & travelling. For food that I only spend a certain amount of money every week & stick to it. ( Making food at home is way cheaper)
For clothes, I always wait till discounts are available, winter clothes are cheaper in summer than in winter, so like that.
In travelling, always book beforehand. Onnisbuses may help you sometime.
