About Old Tipster

At Old Tipster, we’re in the business of bringing back the good stuff—the tried-and-true tricks, habits, and know-how that actually stand the test of time. Sometimes, what worked for your grandparents still works beautifully today.

Whether it’s sharpening a knife, curing a cough, sewing on a button, budgeting for a stormy season, or simply pausing before you speak—we believe there’s value in the way things were done before everything got rushed, digitized, and disposable.

Because the world moves fast, but wisdom lasts.

Where We Put Our Wisdom

🧵 Vintage Wisdom

Old-school smarts for modern dilemmas. From home remedies and frugal living to etiquette that still matters, these are the stories, sayings, and skills worth passing down—delivered with clarity and care.

🛠 Classic Skills

We revisit practical skills that once defined self-reliance—and still do. Think sharpening a knife properly, sewing on a button that stays, building a fire that actually starts, or balancing a budget without an app. All written by people who’ve done it (many times over).

📜 Timeless Advice

From relationships to routines, we offer guidance rooted in life experience—not trends. It’s the kind of advice your grandfather gave you, your aunt still swears by, and your future self will thank you for.
