[quote=Anonymous]I'm sorry you are in this situation. Truly.

If I were in your shoes I would scrape together as much as possible through a hardcore savings plan.

For the next 30 days, do not spend any money aside from the absolute basics:

-rent/utilities
-cell phone
-gas
-food (*noting that you should not go out to eat or buy coffee; hit the grocery store...that's it; make your own food, and try hard to skimp)

No restaurants. No Starbucks. Pack your own lunch. Eat eggs or cereal for dinner. No meat. No bars/happy hours. No beer/wine/booze. No shopping (do not go to target, the mall or online...period!). Don't get your hair done/nails done. No movies. Don't spend any money.

Then see how much you can actually save.

If you don't see a difference in your bank account, then you either didn't actually stop spending or you have a serious cash flow issue (as opposed to a spending issue). If that's the case, then you need to find a new income stream: babysitting, dog walking, house cleaning, etc.
