She recently left many social media users thrilled with her reliable hack.
She said: “You know one of the biggest money saving hacks that nobody really talks about – it’s to stop doing things for other people that wouldn’t do the same thing for you.
“For example, I got invited to something that was going to be a real inconvenience for me to go to.
“It was a fun thing, I would have been happy to be there, if it was convenient, but what I realised before saying yes is that this person would not inconvenience themselves to attend the thing that I was hosting.
“And the thing is, inconveniencing me was going to cost me a lot of money, so I was like, as a people pleaser and someone who really loves this person, I wanted to say yes.
“But the more I thought about it, the more I thought, why am I saying yes?
“This is probably going to cost me $200, and this person would not do that for me, so I said no.
“The people pleaser in me wants to be like, no, just go, but at 30-years-old, I’m over doing that.”
