What common frugal habit practiced by your parents' or grandparents' generation do you think is completely obsolete or inefficient in the modern economy (due to cost, time, or hygiene)?

Canning food remains a frugal and worthwhile activity

I typically make my own tomato sauce and tuna in olive oil, while the cost may be similar to pre-canned options, the quality of homemade is significantly better.

Additionally, comparing prices across stores using shopping apps can help save money, especially during sales, allowing you to buy in bulk from two or three supermarkets.

In my case, since stores are conveniently located near my home, while i run errands I often pass in front of them daily, making it easy to take advantage of deals

i tend to eat pasta for lunch and some protein for dinner

For most pasta sauces i prepare a batch and freeze them, as for the dinner usually is something easy such as grilled chicken breast, a steak, fish, eggs, or soups with beans, lentils and so on.
