DH and I recently found out that our income is going to be dropping significantly, While this came as a quite a surprise and we are obviously disappointed, it hasn't created any huge anxiety. We live quite simply, we have one credit card with less than a $500 balance, our vehicles are paid off, we will retain our medical coverage, have a 6 month emergency fund and a partially funded college fund for our son etc, so I feel that we have made some good choices in the past. However I'm wondering how many of you have creatively saved money. I'm of course aware of the simple things such as eliminating the morning starbucks coffee run, eating out, clipping coupons etc, but I'm sure that many of you have discovered cost savings in other ways and I'm interested in hearing them!
