pasta and beans.
I think I lived on chilli, angel hair pasta and water all throughout college.
I haven't have angel hair pasta in over ten years - can't bring myself to eat it.
Look for sales on butcher items and produce and shop smart - check out flyers, stuff like that.

Thats a good place to start.
Saying you want to know about penny pinching is like saying you want to know about Physics or furniture, there is too much info to post. Name a subjection you are interested in and i will try to help.

Stop drinking soda - sub in water all the time. Fill up a gallon water jug at your school's/company water cooler.
If you are eating at a cafeteria - take extra sandwiches and other non-perishables out in your bag.
Drink at parties for free (if you need to drink at all).
Plan out your meals for the week - shop accordingly and stick to the plan.

Grocery shop using store sale ads -- buy in bulk items you will use & freeze for later.....ie around here Shop Rite will have a "Can Can" & I buy a case of beans, mushrooms, etc & make chili & freeze in containers for lunches etc.....
Buy TP & paper towels when on sale only & in bulk (ie 24 rolls for $3.99 type thing) laundry det. for $1.99 --- Even if you don't need it (as long as you have a place to store it.....
Use bleach & vinegar for cleaning or buy cleaners at the dollar store
Don't eat out as much....buy cheaper beer.....don't buy soda....cut coupons & use the coupon only when the item is also on sale then you get double coupons & you get it for very little.....
And I agree with previous poster....write down your income for the week or bi week (income) then write down your expenses for that period & budget yourself & cut corners where necessary
