What’s a frugal trick you’ve chanced upon recently?

I accidentally semi-reinvented the “trencher”. Basically, in medieval times, food would be served on a slab of bread and that would kinda be the plate. Or, you know, bread bowls for soup and the like.

I have an air fryer, and I’ve learned I can line the basket in a large flour tortilla, and it generally keeps whatever I’m cooking/warming up from getting the pan too dirty aside from some easily knocked-out crumbs.

I hate washing things, and I hate wasting paper liners, so it lets me cut down on those, and I can just eat the tortilla.

    I almost added a similar comment about getting a bidet to the end of my recommendation. $50 on Amazon and maybe an hour or less to install if you’re comfortable with basic plumbing. Significantly reduces amount of toilet paper used. It could even eliminate TP altogether depending on your habits and preferences. I’m not that hardcore yet, but I’ve considered it.

    Bonus side-effect, you’ll realize how much cleaner you are and how much you just hate toilet paper in general after a couple weeks!
