Yep. Probably a thousand a month. Especially now that amazon is not shipping non-essentials.

She still wanted 300/ mo from us for not sending our kid at all. It's a decent discount but my wife's a teacher and off work til August most probably so we just withdrew him and keeping our money. We were already eyeballing a change soon.

Is anyone else saving hundreds a month during all of this?
2 or 3 hundred just not going to work; gas, tolls, lunch, etc.

I WFH all of the time and realized savings years ago.
Wife started working from home and gas and food expenses have dropped.

Somehow we have spent $800.00 + in the past 10 days at Walmart/Tom Thumb and Kroger.

I should save about $200 month in gas and about $600 a month in eating out.

I’m saving at least 300 a month because my wife and daughter can’t go to Hobby Lobby and Micheals.

I'm saving just because we didn't go out and eat/drink the past two weeks. We've ordered local a few times but that is much cheaper since we didn't get drinks or appetizers. Haven't been to a bar in over two weeks so that has saved, my car hasn't moved so I haven't paid for gas.

I’m opposite.
We are pretty frugal, make lunches and dinner at home and only eat out or go to movies a couple times a month. Very lucky to have savings, stable pay and little debt, so we’ve been supporting locals restaurants by picking up the last two weeks. Spending a couple hundred more a week than normal! Really glad we don’t do this on a regular basis.

No. Because I have a full fridge but have been getting takeout almost every other day.
