It’s a recession! What are you doing about it?
Since it just came out that we’ve “officially” been in a recession since December 2007, I’m just wondering what people are doing to survive.
Have you changed your lifestyle to survive? Maybe you’ve started carpooling, pared down to one vehicle, started cooking from scratch more or started shopping at thrift stores. Have you stopped eating out, started working more than one job, cut back on Christmas spending, or the like? Have you moved into a cheaper home or moved in with family to cut expenses?
I’m just curious because I know that in my family we’ve had to buckle down and change several things to meet the economic crunch, but I’ll blog about those things later. I’d love to know what changes other families have made to make it through these tough times.
