When gas got expensive we already made changes to keep Clifford the big red truck parked. We hybrid bike commute usually 4 days a week, exceptions are this week when we are both trying to keep our allergies/weak colds from blowing up into a big problem. We both get lunch one day a week but otherwise brown bag it. We cook at home and make meals that we have left overs from for several days. This allows us to buy meat in large quantities where it is cheaper. We switched to turkey a couple years ago when we realized it is healthier and $1/lb less than red meat. We already only went out to dinner about once a week and for us that is something about the price of Chili's (although we prefer to visit locally owned). We also bought generic form the time we moved in together so that was already in place but we did stop buying cokes. We find free weekend entertainment: bike rides, expos, hiking. Other than that we are cutting back on traveling when we can and staying the course.
