Here's a tip: Cook.
I know people who eat dinner out at least 3 nights per week and always complain about money. It's as if they don't know what that big thing in the kitchen with the 4 hot thingies on top is supposed to be used for.
They also think that just because you're dining in, it has to be boring or not taste as good. Not so. There are plenty of "budget gormet" cookbooks out there. You save money buying groceries and cooking, and you can even lose weight.
Also, PACK YOUR LUNCH for work.
Going to Fridays, Outback, etc. every now and then with co-workers is cool. But going every single day is going to cost. You'd be surprised how many people complain about money, yet spend at least $50-100 a week eating lunch. Pack it!
It doesn't have to be ham and cheese. Heck, you can buy a bunch of different things (yogurt, chips, pretels, ham and brie, etc). You'll probably save your waistline too.
