Cutting back on bills
Thursday, August 28, 2008
With Sinzi at home with the boy, we're down to one income, no more D.I.N.K. status. At one time we had two cell phones and realized it was more than we needed since it got to a point where her phone was for emergencies and my phone was used to call her when I was downstairs waiting to pick her up from work. So we dropped down to a single cell phone. After Diego, we needed two cells again, but this time we switched to prepaid. I put $100 greenbacks on each phone, good for 1000 minutes each (and the minites are good for one full year). That was in April. As we near the end of August here's where we're at:
- Mark cell = 680 minutes remaining.
- Sinzi's cell = 972 minutes remaining.
- Three disciplined trips to Costco or
- Three months of the only milk the boy will drink Kidz Dream Soy Berry Blast or
- 4500 miles worth of gas on the Prius (@ $4/gal)
