    We are a household of 4 and need to cut costs quickly. It has been a long 6 weeks. I am nervous about the credit card minimums. What did you cut first?

    A simple budget with three columns, fixed, flexible and optional, made decisions faster.

    Subscriptions first, then the phone plan. I saved about $1000 a year just by switching to a cheaper plan.
