I was broke years ago when my kids were really young. I would take peanut butter sandwiches to work for my lunch So that I could pack good, healthy lunches for my kids to take to school for lunch . We ate leftovers all the time. I only ever bought clothes for myself and the kids from the secondhand store or they got hand me downs from their cousins.

live off of homemade muffins and homemade soups and breads and stuff. tightwad gazette ( a book) was very helpful to me when my kids were little. recipes and how tos and other ideas to save money. a lot of it is for families but a lot applies to everyone too.

I stayed regimented in my spending of certain essentials, lots of canned goods, water.
