You can just wear clean and comfortable cloth and to win the others attention by some other means.
  2. Save on food. I do not mean that you do not have to eat at all, just do not eat at the expensive restaurants and cafes. Try to cook something at home, and you will see that it is more tasty and cheaper.

It will save much money for you, however, be reasonable while buying things at the one dollar store, as some items presented there are cheap, and some items presented here are too expensive.
