    I have 12 months of savings and I am trying to stretch them after being let go as an operations analyst. I have been trying to stay organised about it. Rent and the car are the biggest costs. What did you cut first?

    Subscriptions first, then the phone plan. I saved about $450 a year just by switching to a cheaper plan.

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