Yes, for us, it was club soda. My husband and I were addicted. I also stopped buying Creme de La Mer products and now use DHC, which is cheaper and just as good. Also, I stopped using Frederic Fekkai hair products and now buy whatever liters of shampoo and conditioner that the salon has on clearance. What else? Ummmm, Omaha Steaks meats. We now just eat meat like everyone else from the store. Also, I cut my clothing spending by like 70%. I was insane with the new clothes from karmaloop and other places. And I stopped buying every pair of Vans that came out. Oh and no more dining out, except for birthdays and then it's optional for the birthday person. I'm sure that there were other more common cuts we made, but these were ones that really added up!
We had a daughter and I left my job to be a stay at home mom, so all of these luxuries mean nothing compared to raising my lovely baby!

Yes. When I became a full-time student, things got rough for me and my kids so I put a halt on buying new clothes for me. Of course I still did for the kids, but I just kept the ones that I all ready had in the closet.

Food. However, now my clothes don't fit, and the money I saved by not eating I will have to spend on a new wardrobe.

Eating out. Do it less often if at all when money is tight. Also, to save gas money, visit friends and family less often.
