[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks so much for all the great advice. I realize we make a great deal of money, we are just in a crunch right now because we bought the house too quickly and it was too expensive, and subsequently I reduced my hours and we had a second child within a year (unplanned, obviously), so we are in serious catch up mode. Got the apps, called around and reduced cable, phone bill, cancelled gym membership, etc., so I think we are on the right track. Strict no Starbucks policy, and no eating out (we never go out to dinner anymore but we both eat lunches out). Also, I extended my leave so we were without my paycheck for awhile. So now I have a plan to pull out of debt and start saving again.[/quote] What exactly did you say to cable and phone people to reduce your bills to them? This is something "they" always tell us to do, but I don't know how likely it is that I will be able to convince the rep to help.[/quote]
