Space: The Frugal Frontier Part II

Part 1

• Get rid of what you don’t need. Examples are old books, clothes you don’t wear, kitchen items you don’t use, toys your kids don’t play with and so on.
• Buy things that have multiple uses. A head tube can also be wristband, neck gaiter, or a facemask.
• Buy furniture that has built in storage space. A flat topped trunk could serve as a coffee table and also as storage.
• Buy smaller. A compact microwave is what most people only need in the first place.
• Buy foldable furniture like sofa beds and flip down desks. Use foldable cots for company. A card table and folding chairs can serve as extra table space when company comes.
• Buy items that will store compactly such as stackable glasses or chairs that stack.
• When saving things for future use, keep only the small parts. Nuts, bolts, zippers.
• Think square. Square storage items fit more efficiently in a freezer or fridge.
• Think vertical. The space above something can be used for storage. You can put racks in your garage to store items such as a bike or tools.
• Share ownership. Perhaps you could go in with a neighbor or family member.
