Do you have any advice for saving money for a high school senior?

Lauren asked:

I’m a senior in high school and I work part time and make about 50 to 100 dollars a week. I also get 500 dollars a month from my dad (weird family situation). And I only pay for my cell phone and lunch money at school which comes out to about 100 dollars a month (both of them combined). But I feel like im addicted to spending money. I go to wal-mart a lot or to other stores. I have plenty of money in my bank account for a girl my age but i know i should be saving more of it then spending. I’m entering college next year so I want to try to break these habits now. How can i get the self control not to shop when i have money but I want to save it for college and eventually a new (well, used) car. Please give me personal experiences, websites, advice, tips, anything!
