In this time of skyrocketing prices the Meredith family is cutting back. We canceled HBO, shop for all of our groceries (except meats) at Wal-Mart, reduced dinning out, got rid of our storage unit, and adjusted our insurance coverage.
We use more coupons than ever, try to buy items when they’re on sale, and we’ve scaled back on most of our frivolous spending. I’m selling stuff we haven’t used in over a year on Craig’s List, and doing some side work (websites) for extra money too.
I’m really worried about our country; foreclosures, government bailouts, watching my 401K dry up, these are scary times for the middle class. I know it will get better, but I don’t believe it will be for several years.
Next on the list – cancel our home phone service.
It Is Accomplished
