[quote=Anonymous]Do your own lawn care/mowing, if you or your spouse can. If that's not possible because of his health issues, then of course keep that expense. Obviously, cut down on the vacations/gifts/clothes/haircuts, etc. Ask yourself what, out of that category, you truly NEED. Make a game out of it with your family between now and Christmas, to see how much you can save, then do something fun together to celebrate. Do you really need the vitamins/protein powders? Unless they are literally prescribed by your doctor to help with health issues, cut down on that stuff. Streamline it down to one multivitamin per family member. See if you can go generic/cheaper in the toiletries category. Look into coupons and such; there are always coupons online for that type of item. [/quote]
