I save over every little thing I do. I just refilled my arrow count to the max! *saves* I just solved a minor puzzle in a dungeon! *saves*
I'm just the opposite, I usually don't save until I'm ready to stop playing, a habit that has, on more than one occasion, cost me a lot of play time. I once played Resident Evil for two hours straight, a big thunderstorm rolled in quickly, and a power failure knocked away all of my progress before I could make it to a typewriter. Another time I played Final Fantasy X and was strolling around the Omega Dungeon looking for Mimics. I found a ton of rare monsters, lots of gil, and my characters leveled up a lot, then I got attacked by a Great Malboro (which ambushes every time in Omega) and lost it all. To this day, I never go to the Omega Dungeon without a First Strike weapon or armor to protect from it's deleterious effects :D.
