Dont use the heating unless completely necesary, and when you do do not just put the thermostat up full find a comfortable temp with extra layers on.

4) Only entertainment => internet, radio, sky

5) Walk instead of taking the car

6) Buy and stock up wine if on sale for 2.99

7) Buy frozen vegs, cheaper and convenient

8) Split the 450 gram meat into 2 packs before freezing

9) Plan and cook meals

10) Pack sandwiches for DH to bring to work

11) Window shopping - very hard at the beginning, after a couple of time, get use to it

12) No eating out

13) Monitor expenses, check bank account every day
