Gonna be eating cheap for a while
I need to make some budget cuts going forward as I am not getting enough hours at work. I used to get at least a regular 40 hours but lately it has been more like 32 to maybe 36 if I’m lucky. I really don’t want to dip into my savings account so if I can just get by month to month that will be my goal. I thought about it and looked at my latest bank statement and most of my extra money goes towards food. I am not a good cook at all so most meals are bought out. I even opt for delivery on the weekends when I don’t feel like driving anywhere. Cutting that out is my first step and it will make a huge difference I think. The problem of course is I have no idea what to make for myself but I’ll figure it out. I’m going over to my parent’s house this weekend so I’ll ask my Mom to give me a crash course on easy things I can make for myself. I’ll give myself Sundays to eat out still as it will be a day of rest for me as far as being in the kitchen.
I also want to take a look at all of my bills and see if I can get any of them lowered. I’ll start by looking for the cheapest car insurance that I can find. I know this is a bad thing to say because I am going to jinx myself but I have never been in an accident before in my life. I think the bare minimum coverage will be fine until I get back on my feet so to speak. I also want to call my cable company to see if I can get on one of their promotions. I know you can do that every so often but I forget the last time I did it. My friend Brian said you have to wait 90 days in-between them so I’ll have to see where I stand. I also want to see what I can do about my cell phone bill. I don’t use it all that much so maybe I can cut my minutes down to save some.
Besides that I am going to go into hermit mode on the weekends. I have my TV and internet to entertain me so I don’t need to go out and drop a lot at a club or wherever. Besides that, I can always play WoW with my friend Donald. Yeah I’ll miss hanging out with my friends but that’s life for now.
