Please share all and any tips on how to be extra frugal. For example coupons you use, or websites with lower prices than actual stores etc.
I don't have much time to shop around for sales but would like to work on spending less without it being too inconvenient.

e-bay has a lot of NWT (new with tag) and NWOT (new with out tag) items that are much cheaper then buying in the stores.

My first take is NO shopping, unless absolutely necessary. You can only save so much by shopping, even if it's on sale. So make a rule: if you can't make, borrow or get for free something - then, and only then, is it time to bargain shop. You would be amazed at how much you spend while trying to save.

Make grocery list and stick to it. Only allow yourself (if you must) one impulse purchase.
Do your best to shop only once a week for groceries.
We go Wed. night in order to shop for Shabbos together with food for rest of week.

I would say, Don't just walk down the avenue or walk through a mall if you don't realy need anything. Cause when you see things in windows..... thats where the trouble begins!

If someone could tell me how to get cheap phone and internet (high speed cable quality not necessarily FIOS) service that would be great. It cost me $85 for both and only $95 if someone has cable tv. How can it cost only $10 more for tv? I can't help feeling that I'm getting ripped off.

Many times, if you call your company and tell them you would like to cancel since they are overpriced, they offer you a different deal. Worth a shot.
