no cable, no internet...my neighbor and i share wifi, food, bare minimum, no extras or junk, use a filter on faucet for drinking water. fabric, use from stash as much as possible. trade with friends if possible. use coupons if i have them. and drive as little as possible to save gas. love reading. borrow from my neighbors and they borrow from me to keep from having to drive to the library. i'm pretty much at bare minimum. oh, and i share a cell phone plan to keep costs down. i really can't cut to much more, but if i did, wifi would go. my kids don't live in FL so my cell is a necessity. i was cut from my job a couple of months ago. predominitely job search via the internet to save on gas.
