Use It up, wear it out, make it do, or do without. This was the motto that helped people survive during the Great Depression. It encapsulated the mentality of the era: making the most out of what you had, and not being wasteful. Instead of just tossing out something that was "past its prime," people would repair or repurpose it until it was completely used up.
These Depression-era frugal living practices aren’t just about saving money; they reflect a profound resilience and creativity in the face of hardship. Many of these habits continue to work today, and in this video I share several tips that can help you to live more frugally and reduce costs.
