Having been poor, the best tip I have is to make spending as little as possible a game. I used to try and see how little I could spend each day and then try and beat that the next day. I learned the difference between want and need, and even though I have money now, I also know I was just as happy or as unhappy then as I am now. You'd be surprised on how much money we waste on random little things without even noticing (a couple bucks here and there). I rarely blow money on just anything these days because I don't really feel the need to. I learned that lesson back then. I also don't feel guilty when I do spend money on something I really want. Oh, and another rule: if you really thnk you want something, wait at least 24 hours before buying it. Most of the time, that thought will pass.
Good luck saving. The JH13s are one purchase I'm glad I saved up for.
