At first I thought, wow, I’m doing number 1 and 2 so I guess I must be doing ok at raising cash when I need it… but it turns out I still have alot to learn. No 6 is very clever, although I doubt I’d have the guts to try :) I’ll keep all of this in mind for future reference. Thanks!

I would suggest adding DIY and trading in the do’s. Sometimes we want/need things that we could make/repair ourselves after viewing a quick tutorial, and for very low costs (lamps, artwork, even furniture). Also, trading with friends might be fun and useful. I’ve mostly traded art for art, but I’ve seen people exchange furniture for art, etc. People move all the time and have stuff to sell, and sometimes it’s just what you need.

Finally, my number one tip for reducing my living expenses is, as simple as it sounds, making my own lunch to avoid spending about $10 a day on bad food-court meals. It’s also way healthier. It does require a bit of time and planing, but I usually do it on Sunday and then I don’t have to bother for the week.
