Here are a few ways to save money on a tight budget
Make a budget
Knowing where your money is going is the first step to being able to save. Track your expenses for at least a month to get a sense of your spending habits, and then create a budget that prioritizes your essential expenses and reduces or eliminates non-essential spending.
Cut back on unnecessary expense
Look for areas where you can reduce spending, such as cutting out subscriptions or memberships you don't use, reducing the amount you spend on entertainment, or cutting back on dining out.
Shop around for deals
When you do need to make a purchase, shop around for the best deal. Compare prices online and in-store, and take advantage of sales and discounts.
Cook at home
Eating out or ordering in can be a big expense. Cooking at home is generally much cheaper, and it's also a great way to eat healthier.
Make extra income
If you're on a tight budget, every extra dollar helps. Consider taking on a part-time job or freelancing gig to bring in some extra cash.
Avoid impulse buying
Impulse buying is one of the biggest ways people overspend. Try to avoid buying things on a whim, and make a list of what you need before you go shopping.
Try to pay off your debt as soon as possible
The interest on loans and credit cards can add up quickly, making it harder to save money. Try to pay off your debt as soon as possible to free up money for saving.
Live below your means

Try to make do with what you have and avoid buying things you don’t need.

Its all about management and discipline. Reduce on your spending and set a budget for yourself. Make sure you remove your savings first before spending on it. Then have a fixed amount for your savings.

Since inflation is so high, many people are quite prudently investing money into assets that could prove to be profitable. Real estate business is one of the most profitable markets right now.
 
I agree with the idea of cutting down your expenses when you are on a tight budget. Eliminate those that you can and reduce those that cannot be eliminated. Do this with self discipline so as to succeed.

That is right. When you are on a tight budget, saving will save you a lot. Since you might not afford everything you want fast, you can choose to save for some things. That way, you will still be on budget and able to afford things you need.
 
If your budget’s been a bit more strained than usual in the last few months, you’re not alone. High inflation, lagging wage growth and the potential of a looming recession are some of the reasons why saving money might be getting more difficult.

Some expenses are almost impossible to eliminate. But that doesn’t mean you can’t reduce them. In particular, lowering your recurring expenses can be a big help because it will give you savings every month, not just one time.

But some changes in your lifestyle can help you a lot:

  • Turning lights off when you’re not using them.
  • Cutting the cord on cable and opting for cheaper streaming services. Streaming services often have shared or family plans that you can split between multiple people to lower the cost even more.
  • Withholding from impulse purchases. One way to help do this is by writing down wants and waiting a week before buying them, so you can see if you still want them.

It is really hard to save money when you do not earn a lot. This is because you eventually have to spend all of the money that you earn. This is why people must also focus on earning income as well.
