We’re in a cost of living crisis but saving money is hard and boring. Everyone has opinions on how to do it. Here are mine. I never had the patience for budgeting, so these are some quick tips that don’t involve maths but will involve some lifestyle changes.

If you’re travelling within the inner city, these are now your only two transport options.

2. Cook more

lil independent grocers, butchers and markets
