I hear ya! We've been doing it pretty tough for a whole year now............. I don't know how much tougher things can get before we have to start sacrificing the big things. We already don't go out for dinner, don't indulge in takeaway no matter how exhausted I am...... it's rough!

We ditched pay tv, sold a bunch of stuff, even borrowed money when DS was born. I don't know what we'll do next. DP is going to increase his hours to a 6 day working week just so we can scrape by....... and I feel awful that I can't contribute right now. Getting a job is not an option, as the CC costs would almost invalidate any work I've done. Electricity is so expensive now I can only justify having 2 lights on in the house at a time.

Oh man, do I hear ya!!!!!!!!!!!! Our families need help. The cost of living has never been so high. I'm afraid of what the future might hold for us if things keep increasing the way they are.
