Couple ideas for saving money to get out of debt
Cancel the cable TV there are better things to do with your time
Limit the house hold to one phone and one phone only either a land line in the home or only one cell phone no need to pay for caller ID also.
Cancel the mega fast internet service and get a basic plan. 10-12 bucks a month.
Fix your meals at home it’s healthy and will save you a ton of green. Take your lunch to work leftovers are like free food LOL
Don’t buy anything you don’t need from the market like chips and such also healthy and will save you green

All of these are great ideas. Our cable,house phone(voip) and internet is all from the same company. Altogether we pay $110.00 a month. which is far better than what we were paying a different company.
We each have a cell phone through nextel. but with our work schedules sometimes thats the only way I get to talk to my wife in a day's time.
We try to cook at home when time allows. Again our work schedules play another role here. we also grill alot, which is kinda expensive when you
cook alot of ribeyes... I guess we need to cut back on some of that too. but your right, leftovers will save alot of money.
Some of the things we started to do awhile back was not purchase so many consumables. Things like paper cups, paper plates, etc... (unless we have company) that also saves alot of money. You have to figure the cost for the entire year and not just the week. so if you spend $5.00 a week on
paper cups, that equals $260.00 per year. :bigeyes: And we figure if we can do this on some of the other things that we consume we can cut down on waste, while increasing our funds to put towards bills, etc.
