do you belong to any of the great groups here on cafemom that help folks figure out saving money or spending less? deals and steals is a GREAT group, the CVS/walgreens group another one! i will pray for you. i sense a lot of frustration here.

I feel you, I have often felt that way.  I started writing down everything I spend in a notebook so that I could really track where everything was going.  I also started getting really tight with groceries.  Only buying what I had listed, and the list was created by the sales.

Hugs, Hope things get better soon!
