Personally, I quit smoking, which was a bitch but totally worth it.

I stopped driving 70 MPH to work and cut it down to 60 ... it made a big difference for me.

I also cut back on the soda. Mostly drink just water now. I was amazed at how much money I would drop at convenient stores on butts, drinks, and snacks. I saved a ton there by holding onto my "pocket change" and quitting a vice.
