[quote=Anonymous]I recommend two things: No eating out at all for a month. That means no drinks out and no coffee out and no meals out. Buy food mostly at ALDI with one trip a month to COSTCO for meat. Try to eat as much as you can ffrom your cabinets. After his monthlong fast, think about what you really miss and which splurges give you the most bang for your buck. You’lol of course need to pack a lunch and take a walk instead of eating out. You should also consider packing a thermos of coffee. I know this all seems radical and crazy, but your spending is out of control and it’s time to take extreme frugality action towards moderation on the future. Long term changes you should probably undertake: No visits to Whole Foods. Ever. For at least a year. Limit coffee out to once or twice a month. Dinners out: once a month for a date night OR (not and) Twice a month for take out. [/quote]
