According to next month’s Self Magazine, Sarah Michelle Gellar admits to pinching pennies in order to save a bit.

 ”I take my reusable bag to Whole Foods so I get a discount,” Gellar tells the mag, which hits stands Sept. 25. “I go to Bloomingdale’s on double rewards day. And I always print my dry cleaning coupons before I go. My dry cleaner laughs. He’s like, ‘You don’t have to keep printing them out!’ “

Mrs. Gellar/Prinze has moved from Hollywood to New York and navigates the city on a customized bike.

“Not only is it bright pink with the bell and streamers and the whole thing, but it has Hello Kitty tires,” Gellar says. “Every time I leave my apartment, my doorman just shakes his head.”

“I felt a little suffocated,” she says of living in Hollywood. “All I did every day was drive to work and back. I was losing my conversation skills. Acting is a lonely business sometimes. You don’t always know who to trust. I’ve been really fortunate. I’ve had my family. I’ve had the same friends. You look in our apartment and the pictures on the mantel from last week are the same people from when I was five years old.”

Sarah Michelle Gellar can be seen next in The Air I Breathe and Possession.

I like seeing that everyone in Hollywood isn’t like the Britney’s and Lohan’s of the world.
