Have a great Cheap Cheetah Day & Save that Money!
Happy Feb 1st, how are you today? Did you know that you can't really live on just social security checks if you live in New York or another expensive city like New York? I was trying to do an experiment or thinking about doing one. I went over my basic bills for 2025, and it was about $3000 for the month. With my pension and social security, I should get around $2100 a month. I'm short 900. Let's say $1000 for extra I didn't count on. With a pension that is small from the city and my social security check, I still can't afford to live where I'm living, and I like it here. I can't afford anything in New York on that kinda money. The reason I'm saying this is that I have watched videos where people are living on just their social security checks, and I'm wondering where you're living that social security's enough to cover your basic needs plus an emergency? I might want to move thee to. The reason I'm saying this is that even though I'm a cheapskate, no matter how hard you try and save sometime it doesn't work. Ask the people you see in Walmart grocery stores and other retail places, a lot of them are seniors. I've even seen more seniors now doing YouTube for extra money. It breaks my heart to see Seniors having to struggle to make ends meet. I'm thinking about getting a part-time job this year myself. Just to save some extra money that I can put away for those just-in-case moments. What do you think?

Could somebody tell me what happened to 2025? Who stole it? It's now 2026, and it's time to start fresh with your saving goals and plans. Do you have any? What I have done is go over my checkbook spending for 2025 to see what I spent my money on. So, I can make corrections for 2026. With the way the prices keep going up, I have to watch my money more carefully than before. Did I mention I happen to live in expensive A** New York, and I think they're talking about making you pay a fee to breathe their polluted air soon. It seems every time you turn around your getting feeded to death around here. So that's why I have to be careful of what I'm spending and try to look for the best deals for my money. I never use to ask for a discount, now the first thing out of my mouth is do you have discounts for ..... This is what you should do too. What can they say but no, and you move on. Anyway, that's my money saving tip for you if you have any, please share them with me and let' all save that money for 2026 together.

See you with some more Money-Saving Cheap Cheetah Tips in 2026!!
What do we have, two weeks maybe three tops before 2026 is here? Have you given much thought about what you're doing money-wise for 2026? I know already the economy sucks. Things are way too expensive, and a lot of people are just trying to keep their heads above water. I know. But think about this, you have two weeks to set a budget in place. find out where your money is coming from. downsize and prepare to spend your money wisely in 2026. I would say use coupons, but that seems to have fazed out in New York. Let's start small. I'm a coin person, so I save my coins, and since I'm cheap, I go over my bills with a fine-tooth comb, trying to catch errors on the company's part. I do find some, and that saved me money in the long run. I am also trying to get a part-time job just for two or three days in 2026. I just got a flier from Amazon screaming for help.
Take one step at a time in 2026, whether it's health or money you're trying to improve. It just takes one step to start. So, let's take that money step for 2026 together. What do you say?

Sorry so late, but Happy Thanksgiving anyway. Hope that you had a good one. Being a cheapskate, mine was simply spent if with family eating what needed to be eaten from the freezer, which was a basic turkey parts and some beef I needed to use up before it went bad. What about you? I was watching the Black Friday craziness, which wasn't as crazy as before, no long lines and a busy mall. People are doing most of the shopping online these days. Also, I saw where a woman had set up in the park and was giving her stuff away for free. It was her campaign on the anti-Black Friday sale. the people loved the idea didn't like the name so much.
So are we planning our money-saving strategies for 2006 yet? I have some ideas, but not sure which way I'll be going next year. Just wanted to say, have a safe and Happy Holiday.
