I'll probably end up following the "buy as little as possible" way of saving money.
some kinds of plain foods taste pretty good, and work fine for eating. Plain shicken with some honey/mayonnaise/mustard sauce tastes pretty good for me, guacamole also works, though not sure how expensive the avacados are, Rice and some kinds of sauce also work fine. I'll probaby learn more in a few years when I get out of the dorm and to my own place to live. Sushi making materials will probably also be on the list, to save a lot of money. I also don't eat very much nowadays, so that helps.
For shoes, I have one pair of suit shoes for times I need a suit, mostly though I just get one pair of newbalance shoes a year and wear them into the ground. By the end of the shoe cycle they usually have some holes and the bottoms are worn pretty smooth, but they still work fine as shoes. I used to get cleats for soccer, but don't play anymore.
Hair cutting and shaving is just some electric clippers. Keeping it short means no comb needed. I just cut my own hair, and feel if I missed anywhere.
If I ever fealt like paying attention, I would just figure out whether toilet paper, paper towels, or kleenexes werew cheaper, and use one of them for all three jobs. I
will already use these three interchangebly if one runs out.
Clothing is pretty much tee-shirts, sweat shirts, shorts, sweat pants from target, so far. Pretty much in the future, whatewver clothes I get, I'll just grab the cheapest ones I can find, since unless they are super uncomfortable or itchy I don't really notice any difference.
For computers I'll probably stick with one that works until it breaks down. Same goes for any electronics. Mostly with CD's Me or my brother will burn them if we need extra.
The main things I probably will end up spending extra money on are types of foods I really like and computer games. I don't get that many computer games so don't worry about the price. Some types of food would take awhile to figure out how to make myself, so I just spend the money on them.
