I have 13 months of savings and I am trying to stretch them after being let go as a mechanic. I am in Knoxville, in case local advice matters. Rent and the car are the biggest costs. What helped the most?

I called the landlord and the card company early. Both offered a short payment plan, which I did not expect.
