    I have 5 months of savings and I am trying to stretch them after being let go as a teaching assistant. It has been a long 10 weeks. Rent and the car are the biggest costs. What did you cut first?

    Subscriptions first, then the phone plan. I saved about $500 a year just by switching to a cheaper plan.
