What We Take For Granted

With the price of everything going up, most of us are having to cut back on the things we like to have to the things we have to have. Where you used to go to the mall and buy that latest pair of designer pants, instead you go to the department stores and try to find something that looks just as good and hopefully you'll find it on sale. Are you one of those people who enjoy eating out several times a week? You will find yourself saving money by cooking at home, or if you eat at home all the time you'll find yourself eating something made from ground beef instead of that nice rib eye steak. If you are one of those people who have a swimming pool, you'll find that draining it and not using it will save you a pile of money from running the pump 24 hrs a day. Even pets are suffering as more and more people are putting them out or up for adoption as they would rather spend the money on food for themselves than having that extra mouth to feed.
