I have 8 months of savings and I am trying to stretch them after being let go as a nurse's aide. I worked as a nurse's aide before this. I listed every subscription and found several I forgot. What did you cut first?

Subscriptions first, then the phone plan. I saved about $250 a year just by switching to a cheaper plan.

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