[quote=Anonymous]With the shutdown and furlough, DH is imploring me to cut expenses. I think I am bare bone as it is. Here is what I spent last month for our family of three. Credit card payments: $689.00 Groceries: 616.45 General Merchandise: 466.13 Gas: 258.60 Cell Phone: 191.01 ATM Withdrawals: 80.29 Other: 345.61 Total: $2647.09 That accounts for about 37% of DH take home. It is only form the amount he gives me for groceries, household expenditures, etc. The rest covers the mortgage, utilities, etc. So, all of the above, is basically so called "discretionary spending. DH does not drive to work - spends about $6 per day on his commute. His car - paid for - sits in the driveway most of the time. I drive my car about 15 miles a day, picking up and dropping DD off at school, doing errands, etc. Looking for help here. [/quote]
