[quote=Anonymous]We signed up for mint.com and saw how much money we were spending on pointless things. We cut out "general merchandise" and probably whatever you're categorizing as "other" and we're back to saving again. You can cut back a bit on groceries, although this was the hardest for us as I like to cook a lot of nice meals. I started shopping sales and clipping coupons. Also, your cell phone sounds high. We are on a family plan that includes me and DH. We both have iphones and it's about $120 a month. If you have wireless at home, you probably don't need to pay for the unlimited data plan. Sorry, you aren't "bare bones" here at all. I hope the shutdown doesn't last long, but if it does, you're going to have to get used to spending a lot less.[/quote]
