Times are Tough

Everyone seems to be feeling the financial pain; divorcing couples all the more so, as they are transitioning from paying for one household to paying for two.

Here’s a blog for helpful hints on how to downsize and re-order your spending priorities: Frugal Dad. Check out his article: 75 Money-Saving Tips for Surviving a Recession.

Along this same line, see, 100 Great Tips for Saving Money at The Simple Dollar. If you want a thumbnail outline for personal finance, read this article with 5 basic points.

Here are some websites for the bargain hunter in you.

Travel: Kayak compares air fares world-wide.

Apparel: Two of my favorites: Overstock and eBay.

Magazines: Discount Magazines at $5.95 for one year's subscription.

Online coupons: Coupons.com.

Update. Through Carrie Kirby's blog, Wise Bread (h/t Time magazine), I found Hot Coupon World. Worth a look. And see this article about bargaining down medical bills in the New York Times.
