i've WFHd for six years and will likely WFH for at least the next three years unless i make a career move
all my office jobs were within walking/biking/public transportation distance
walking and biking are sufficient for most of what i do. occasionally i use delivery apps, get a ride from someone, or get an Uber

cook almost every meal, ton of discount meat and fair amount of cheap grains
still take buses occasionally
avoid certain expensive medications (like nurtec)
repair all electronic things myself, do prole goy mr. fixit-ing on bigger things where i'm competent
still wear some clothes from undergrad or even fucking high school in casual contexts, including one tattered jacket
spend the time to meticulously maximize tax refunds every year even if the difference is just a few hundred dollars
avoid anything with a subscription cost, including gyms etc.
rarely buy books anymore; almost everything i've gotten recently is from retiring/dead profs
there're a ton of minute things like avoiding consumable goods where possible, calculating $/calories at the grocery store, using every last fucking bit of soap, shampoo, etc.

100% refuse to buy a drink either for myself or for kids at fast food restaurants. If kids want a "milkshake," they have to share a "medium."
(neither of those is what poor people do, but poor people tend to be stupid, and their inability to think of such things is a significant reason for their poverty)

McDonald’s app - I do this too
Keeping Starbucks cup in car and use it for 0.50 refills - I get starbucks trenta arnold palmer every morning, but can't get refills on drive thru orders and eventually get found out abusing the system by some shitty manager on the once in a blue moon occasion I attempt this beyond the acceptable refill rule
Never take chicks out on dates - more or less same
Torrent movies - I'll see 5-6 movies a year in the theatres
Pee outside never inside - just don't flush -- I flush after I pee
Copenhagen dip - I don't spend money on tobacco products and have a nice collection of cuban cigars I got in 2020.
Feed my cat scraps - no pets
Buy things a la carte and combine them at local restaurants instead of ordering full meal - don't understand this
Take soap and shampoo conditioner from hotels - I do this so that I can have carry-on appropriate containers
Sneak into paid venues - haven't done this since I was a teenager
Look for free furniture on fb marketplace and Craigslist - don't look for free stuff but have used offer-up for furniture
Check slickdeals.net every morning - this still around?
Bathe every 2-4 days - I bathe because I have to be around people but if left to my own devices this is probably the schedule
Plink with a .22 - don't own a gun in CA
Ask for rides to and from airport from friends - I uber to and from the airport
Fill my gas tank only halfway unless at Costco - I always fill my tank full and then fill it up when the gas sign comes on
Collect loose change - I don't do this.
Read books off internet archive library - z-lib but I do buy a ton of books
Use ad blocker instead of paying for YouTube premium - do this too but had youtube premium when I would stream it from my TV

My kids are mortally embarrassed to ride in my pos car. Even my wife, who is admirably thrifty is kind of put off by it.
We have the same furniture from when we got married and combined our shit 12 years ago. We’ve bought one new (cheap) couch and one new kids bed. I’ve promised we can get some new furniture when the youngest goes to college in another 12 years, but I may have lied.

I'm wealthy, but still have some prole habits:
--Constant awareness of sales tax rates and policies (for example, clothing under $110 is tax free in NYC; NJ used to have a sales tax holiday for computers and other back to school stuff, CT has a higher sales tax rate for jewelry, etc.)
--Subscribe to gamepass and make kids play games on game pass, or N64/Gamecube/Playstation emulated games
--Happily accept hand me down kids' ski clothes and equipment from friends
--Go to every members event with an open bar at my private club, hoping to earn back the $10K+ per year I pay in dues via alcohol and passed hors d'oeuvres
--Fly at off times for vacations, like leaving Thursday night and coming back on a Saturday
--Fix my Porsche if it's at all possible to do myself, including door lock actuators, oil changes, brakes, trunk lifters, etc., and wash/detail it too (with a foam cannon and wash mits and microfiber towels) This is actually pretty easy given how autistic car forum users are--there are step by step video and photo guides to most stuff
--Save all food containers from delivery, chopsticks, soy sauces, etc. until my cupboard is filled; also hoard little trinkets Michelin starred places give you like the Eleven Madison Park granola jar, the per se metal box of shortbread cookies,
--Send Cutco knives in for sharpening/half price replacement (I fucked up my paring knife shucking oysters)
--Take advantage of Patagonia repair service
--Bought kids kindles and make them "borrow" library books from our local NYC library and the one in the town where we have a vacation home (which has awesome access rights)
--Sneak snacks and flask into movies and museums
