Budget after a layoff: what did you cut first? - what worked for you?

    I have 6 months of savings and I am trying to stretch them after being let go as a machine operator. Rent and the car are the biggest costs. Did any lender work with you?

    Subscriptions first, then the phone plan. I saved about $400 a year just by switching to a cheaper plan.

    Keep everything in writing and save the confirmation numbers. It made the follow-up calls so much easier.
