Buy low, sell high!
Don't even bother trying to "keep up with the Joneses" we never have. We eat out every Friday night, and a breakfast every Sunday morning. Only because we like to and money is not at all tight.
I do mow and maintain my grass. Not just to save the money, but I can always use the exercise. It sure beats paying for a gym membership. My wife spends hours in the multiple gardens we have. I work on my own cars, as a hobby. With two cars from the mid 1980s, there is always some project I can tinker on, always something to do in the garage.
I fix things around the house and the only time I called a plumber was when a sewer line shifted at the connection to the main sewer line in the neighborhood. He had to dig a hole 6 feet deep to get to the connection and his head was below the ground level as he made the connection. I know my limits.
