    We are a household of 7 and need to cut costs quickly. Rent and the car are the biggest costs. What did you cut first?

    Subscriptions first, then the phone plan. I saved about $1100 a year just by switching to a cheaper plan.

    Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it 4 months ago, and it got easier once I kept a simple log of every call and form.
