    My income dropped to unemployment benefits and my bills have not changed. I listed every subscription and found several I forgot. What helped the most?

    Ask your utility about hardship programmes. Mine knocked a bit off my bill for several months.

    Subscriptions first, then the phone plan. I saved about $350 a year just by switching to a cheaper plan.
