#3 1. When you want to save money for and there is an adventure, sale or limited edition make sure first do you really need these things. When there is an adventure wait for a guide to see what you get and if you like it then spend your money on it. That way you don't waist it.
2. When you want to spend money for making your loft or any room beautiful first draw it on a piece paper how you want to make it look. Believe me I did that and it really helps and help you safe money.
3. Always use the "try it out" option first to make sure before just buying it.
4. Before spending make sure you will really need it otherwise in the end your upset for spending it and have to delete it for waisting money.

#1: The most I  have collected is 156 $.
#2: I spent at least 120 $ to decorate my Loft, Living Room and Cannes room every 2 months.
#3:
~ For adventures: Choose whether you want a 7$ job or a limited room or everything on the adventure. Also, according to iklovech, wait for the guide of an adventure. You don't have to waste money on items you don't want.

~ For decorating rooms: Plan out what you want it to look like. Search throughout the stores and find the cheapest suitable things that fit for your decorating plan. Use the 'Try Out' button before buying :) You can save up your money until it's enough to buy the things you want.

~ For dress ups: Plan out a theme for your doll. Make sure it fits with the room. Again, search throughout the stores to find the cheapest and the prettiest outfits for your doll according to the theme. This way, you can wear the prettiest outfit but in low costs.

*Note: If you happen to have extra 3$, don't spend it if you don't need to. Save it because who know someday you need an extra 3$ in your budget ;)
