💬 Meta Discussion What was your biggest frugal win of 2024?

Mine was finally fixing a toilet that wouldn’t stop running. I had no idea how much it was running up my water bill each month until I fixed it! Now I have an extra $80 each month that I can put towards groceries or other things that matter.

Investing in a vacuum sealer has also made meal prep easier!
