Recently, I saw that my friend had a piggy bank where she kept all of her tips and cash she had lying around. She opened it recently and managed to save a lot of money. I decided to do the same thing and so far it's going well. I tend to spend cash if I have it but by doing this I save. Overall, these changes in my saving and spending have got me on the right track for when life picks up again. I plan to continue to do all of these things so I don't fall into a rut again.
