Thanks for the tips all. We're starting to look at a lot of things. First off is shopping at Aldi's a great tip that I'd forgotten about. Plus the Sams / BJ's club stuff. Another thing that I found to help get my head around our finances is a site call Mint (
www.mint.com), that connects to your banks and consolidates all your transactions, makes budgets for you etc. It has opened my eyes to see where my money is going, which makes it easy to see the changes that will yield the best results.
I'll certainly keep you posted. I think the biggest thing that we need right now is support. I'd forgotten that the reasons I came here started with flying, but evolved into much more. *sniff* I love you guys.
Later.
