At the time of this corona pandemic, it seemed very difficult to find additional income. Inevitably, frugality is one of the main options we must take. What are some tips that help to save on home expenses? There are some light tips that we can practice easily, those are 1. More often cook yourself at home, reduce snacks outside. The price of food in a stall especially restaurant certainly far more expensive than cooking alone 2. Bring supplies, at least drinking water, from home. Mineral water costs 1 dollar. If we buy 2 bottles already 2 dollars. If multiplied by a month or 20 days you will find a large number 3. Turn off lights and other electronics wisely, turn off if not necessary. Even a 5 watt lamp if we turn it on all day can increase our electricity bills Stay safe and healthy

We have a water filtering machine at home so we do not buy bottled water.

I always cook at home, I never order food. I prefer mineral water, anyway here a 1.5 Liter bottle costs 15 cents, so I will not drink the water from the tap.

@nawala123 Tap water is usually good here, but I prefer not to take risks, particularly right now.

These are good tips. Here, eating out is expensive even at fast food places so it's always cheaper to cook at home.

Yes. During this lock down period the electricity consumption has increased. We should turn off the lights properly. Thanks for your tips. It is really valuable one.

As soon as I read Indonesia Bali comes to my mind. What a great place to be in. They use cane wood for fuel. They rely on fishing. Many have their own rice farms.
