We spend money to fulfil one of our needs. Before this, we should understand the need and priority of the expenditure on it.
If you can get your needs fulfilled without incurring that expense, then save that expense.
For example, a relative of mine used to live in an area where no automobiles passed through, so he had to walk 3km to catch public transportation to work. It was his compulsion at that time, but he accepted it for the sake of his life.
Time has also changed, and cabs on call are available, but due to his experience, he does travel on foot to transport instead of hiring a cab or taking another vehicle, and this saves his travel expenses.
