Tosha Larios How to Save Big with Everyday Purchases Using Advanced Girl Math

Hi friends! It’s Tosha Larios here, and I’m excited to share some new tips on how to save money with a little help from Advanced Girl Math. Saving money can sometimes feel challenging, but with these fun and simple strategies, you’ll start seeing your savings grow quickly without giving up things you love. Advanced Girl Math is all about making smart money decisions and finding creative ways to keep more cash in your pocket. So, let’s dive in!

What is Advanced Girl Math?

Advanced Girl Math is all about breaking down the “math” behind spending and saving so you can feel confident about where your money is going. It’s a way to think about purchases, savings, and investments that help you reach your financial goals while enjoying life. We use strategies that make saving fun and easy, whether it’s scoring great deals, making the most of discounts, or understanding how small changes can lead to big savings over time.

Save on Groceries with Simple Swaps

Groceries are a big part of any budget, but with Advanced Girl Math, you can make small swaps to save. Try buying store brands instead of name brands. Many store brands are just as good but come with a much smaller price tag. Another trick is to buy in bulk, which usually costs less per unit. For example, a big bag of rice or beans can save you more in the long run compared to smaller packages.

At Star Track Farm, we focus on growing organic produce, so you’re not only saving money but also supporting sustainable farming.

The Magic of “No-Spend” Days

One of my favorite Advanced Girl Math tips is planning no-spend days. Choose one day a week where you don’t spend any money. It may sound small, but over a month or a year, those no-spend days add up. Use these days to get creative with what you have—make dinner with ingredients already in your pantry, find free entertainment, or finish DIY projects. It’s a great way to save without feeling like you’re sacrificing.

DIY at Home and Save Big

Doing things yourself, like cooking and creating, can save you tons of money over time. Making meals at home is usually way cheaper than dining out. You can check out my recipes at Cooking with Dr. T for inspiration on easy, delicious meals you can make yourself.

Use Cash for Better Control

Here’s a trick that helps many people save: use cash instead of credit or debit cards for certain expenses, like groceries or entertainment. When you use cash, you’re more aware of how much you’re spending, which helps you stick to your budget. Once the cash is gone, you know it’s time to stop spending. This simple approach can make a big difference in saving.

Plan Your Purchases and Track Your Savings

Before you buy, ask yourself: Do I need it now, or can I wait? Giving yourself time to think helps avoid impulse purchases. Tracking your savings is also super motivating. Start a “savings tracker” on paper or your phone, and add to it every time you save money. Seeing the amount grow can make you want to save even more!

Invest in Skills to Save Long-Term

Sometimes, the best way to save money is by learning new skills. For example, learning to do basic car maintenance, gardening, or cooking from scratch can save you hundreds over time. My blog at STEM with Dr. T is full of ideas for building practical skills that benefit both your wallet and your confidence.

Extra Tip: Cashback and Rewards Programs

Many stores and credit cards offer rewards points or cash back when you shop. These programs are an easy way to save on things you’d buy anyway. Make sure to check if there’s a loyalty program at your favorite stores, and remember to use points and rewards before they expire.
