I have 4 months of savings and I am trying to stretch them after being let go as a procurement assistant. I have read a lot of threads here and could not find my exact situation. I listed every subscription and found several I forgot. What did you cut first?

Subscriptions first, then the phone plan. I saved about $1000 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 settled down once I kept a simple log of every call and form.
