I am looking for some tips on how to make ends meet while I am off work for awhile. Do you have any tips for me? I have been cutting costs every way possible but I am willing to cut more if there is a tip out there that I haven't tried yet. thanks and hugs

Do you feel you do better in some areas in your life then others when it comes to cutting back? Usually it is with food expenses that people are looking for tips but I was just wondering? I didn't want to assume? It could be with buying clothes? Life is tough when you are on a budget that is for sure? I use to say to myself do I really need this? Can I get by without it? Just asking myself those questions helped me automatically cut back.

babmi I do a few things on the internet to make money. I can share you the links to the sites, that I have recieved checks from and do each month. I can also show you by telling you each step you need to take to make money at each of the sites. (I currently bring in $150.-$200. extra a month online.)
I also suggest going to the manufacturs websites of products you use in your home and request coupons. You get better coupons that are for way more off, then what you get in your local paper or on sites like coolsavings.com.
Do you own your own home? Can you plant a veggie garden? My family does that and we save alot of money a year growing are own patatoes, corn, carrots, lettuce, tomatoes, watermelon, and a few other things. Are garden is 32x12. If you can't plant in the ground. You can go to a community garden to plant, or get scrap wood and make some wooden plant boxes and plant veggie's there.
