Shove the money directly up your A_S_S. Knowing where that cash has been will reduce your desire to touch and spend it.

If you want to spend your money on something special and maybe hi-dollar, then the best thing to do is after your living expenses and maybe a few dollars in savings......set yourself a goal. If you want a nice stereo system, big screen TV, boat, cruse, anything on those lines, then stash the money until you reach your goal. Put the money away in a safe place, like a home safe, safety deposit box, fire safe at home. If you pinch you pennies, working toward your goal, it wont take long to get there.
Throwing your money away on little things that don't mean anything will not be as satisfying as reaching that final goal and having something wonderful to show for your effort.
I wish you luck and God be with you.

If you have enough $ saved up, put it in a CD so you can't spend it without a penalty. Another thing to do is to get your check directly deposited. You could allot a specific percentage into a different bank account or a savings account or your 401K (- which is best because some companies will match up to a certain percentage - free money is great!).

Open a high rate savings account online and watch you intrest accumilate daily, just keep adding and think of some goals for the money like school or a new car so you wont be so tempted to take the money out

Think about how screwed you would be if you were to lose your job right after you spent all your money. Maybe just allow yourself one luxury item per month,and bank the rest.

start calculating when you want to retire, how much you want to have per month when you retire, what age you want to retire, and so you will have some numbers to support your saving. Put it n 401K, roth IRA, reg IRA and then invest. Try to save 20% of what you are making but allow yourself a bit of "mad money" each month.

all of the above answers will work but if you really want to stop spending, give mommy your pay check and let her handle it for you.
