Spend your money on things you value. Think about what are your personal values. Some people think that to secure a family is important. Some people think that success in business is the only thing. Some people think that to help others is happy. So what you like best and enjoy doing is your personal values that you should spend money on.
Buy only the things you need. I understand that some people buy things for a piece of joy and company. But have ever seriously think that you need money? Some people anyhow buy things and they made good friends. So how do you count the losses and profits? It's double gain, right? Its only when you are short of money, the needs come in. So create a budget if you needs money. In other words, plan your spending.
Learning to list down your each purchase helps you to builds up easier decision making process for your needs and importance. You will think of what you bought last time and for what you bought them. If it is not a need, then give up in your next purchase.
You may like to pick only cash for your purchases as it helps you to decide easier what things to buy since cheap things are also limited.
Hope above strategies helps you to save up more money.
Best Wishes,
