Personally, I'm pretty rigid about my budget, so it's pretty easy to hit my goals (as long as my wife is working lol) but I tend to be a little tighter with my money now. I do a fair amount of bargain hunting at the grocery store, as it is one of my largest expenses that I have any control over.

Earn them. It's been my main income since 2013.
If you have time for any side job that earns you sats, even if current fx rates lose half or even quarter, just remember 1sat=1sat.
Example: One of my friends makes memes on commission for sats which is super fun and made her a bunch of sats as she went the past couple of years.
This can be you, and you, and you.

I spent the better part of 15 years being the tightest, scrimp-ing-est, coupon cutter, penny saver master I could be. Saving money like that feels good, but wastes your time.
You don't save your way to riches.
Sure, don't be profligate. You don't need a TV, you don't need the latest phone, you don't need a new car.
But that time you spend clipping coupons and shopping at thrift stores is better spent increasing income.
Figure out how to increase income, don't worry so much about expenses. Buy sats with your increased income.

In addition to constantly looking to reduce expenses, I try to get as much back in bitcoin rewards as possible.
I’m not as obsessive as some, but I do check to see who has the best deals with Fold or Lolli (although it’s not clear if you can actually withdraw your sats from Lolli).

Withdrawal works! Mine processed! It took about 2 or 3 weeks after I initiated it

I was meaning to ask you. Neither of my attempts have processed, but maybe I just need to wait. Although, with the mempool basically empty I'm not sure what they'd be waiting for.

Eventually they paid it out so it’s quite possible it did something.

I was recently able to withdraw some sats, but my ability to earn new sats back has dramatically fallen off. Try Satsback, I can provide a link if desired, but they have no withdraw minimum and pay via lightning.

Thanks, I’ll try to withdraw again and then I’ll check out Satsback. If you get any sort of referral benefit, share that link.

No requirement to use obviously. I've done 3 or 4 LN withdrawals.

This is a good tip. I have gotten around 1.5M sats in rewards and I am really not trying that hard to optimize for rewards.

You need to know first what your highest expenses are. Once you know that, you can go from there (try to reduce them). Some may be fixed, but you'd be surprised at what can be negotiated.
That way you'll avoid worrying about reducing spend on areas where you're overall spend isn't that high.

I try to save on everything... You should try to control every bill you have. Try cutting costs on recurring bills (phone, electricity, etc)
Most importantly I try to put 10% of all that I earn in a separated account.
keep stacking!!

I know coinbase is evil but I have the coinbase debit card so the tragedy of the commons that is my bank account at least is getting .5% turned into bitcoin. I know there are other cards that do more but havent looked into them

Honestly just stick to your strategy. You are always going to feel like you didn't stack enough. Don't even worry about it. Just keep gradually having that sats balance go up and it will work out fine.
I would suggest trying to increase your DCA when we are in corrections and if you can double it when we are in bear markets. So if Bitcoin drops 10-20% try to increase your DCA at least for awhile until it is back on an upswing and if Bitcoin drops 50% or more you want to start buying more aggressively.
Or you can gamble your way to sats riches on Predyx.

To be fair, between the S&P market and the Norway Chess market. I made about 40k sats on Predyx today. My current daily DCA in Canadian cuck bucks only nets me around 10k sats a day so that's like 4 days worth of DCA. Results not guaranteed. Haha

I was personally a disaster in this aspect, since I have the stacking mentality, this has been the keyst point where I worked to improve more Sats.
