[quote=Anonymous]Don't do it just for three weeks, but for much longer. Seems like you are cutting really close if a 3-week period without a paycheck made you think about cutting expenses. I cut my expenses, which were never too high, after several economic downturns over the years. Write down 50 most often bought food items and know their bottom prices. I'm able to save $100 on milk a year depending where I buy it. This is just one item. I can see the extra I have to pay out if I forget to buy half gallon milk from Aldi/Lidl.You can see here that a gallon would probably even save me more. Ofcourse it would, so I do have ways to go to master the craft. So would buying whole milk vs the 2% I buy now. Concentrate less on feeling bad about dipping into savings and more on how to keep it going. Also, start investing if you haven't already. When you invest, you learn, and learn even from your mistakes. I'm a minimum wage worker who fell into investing, and just retired at 45 with too much money and free time. My part time is to save money. [/quote]
