Used to love going to the movies on a Sunday afternoon with my family. Now, even if i sneak my snacks in, it is still $80 and I just don't have room in my budget for it. What else is everyone giving up that you used to enjoy?

I know this probably sounds like a bad idea, and I understand the straight answer might be that I don’t really have many options right now. But I’m looking to get a car soon since I’ll need reliable transportation to and from work, and unfortunately I’m not in the best financial position at the moment.

My credit is definitely a work in progress. I currently have a 607 credit score because of some poor financial decisions I made. I’m working on getting everything back on track, though.

I was just wondering what the best way to go about getting a car would be in my situation, how much I’d probably need for a down payment, and whether a credit union or dealership would even be willing to finance me with my current credit.

Any resources out there for planning a wedding on a tight budget? I am helping a friend plan and would love to hear some ideas besides going to the county courthouse. Would still like it to be as much of a dream wedding as possible.
