[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anything is possible depending on what you're willing to sacrifice. If they can move to Herndon, it's a bit cheaper (and the Herndon Park n Ride is right there to get you downtown). $1600 for a 3br. Food wise if you buy only what's on sale, you "should" be able to feed the family for around $100 a week. Yep you'll be eating a lot of pasta and rice dishes, but it's cheap. Start couponing and you'll bring that number down even more. Utilities in an apartment are pretty cheap, and if you just do internet you can use the free streaming for TV. Get on freecycle.com, and scour craigslist for people giving away plants (farmers or individuals overplant and many don't just want to toss them. Free food). Absolutely can be done, as long as you plan.[/quote] Have you seen the $1600 places in Herndon, I have, and you don't want to live there with your family. seriously.[/quote]
