For me, it’s subscriptions and online tools that overlap in what they offer. It’s easy to keep paying for several services because each one seems useful on its own, but together they can become a surprisingly large monthly expense. I’ve started checking recurring payments regularly and cancelling anything I rarely use. That small habit has made it much easier to keep unnecessary spending under control.
