We have not been doing so great with not eating out, although we're still doing better than we were. On the other hand, I'm done with my thesis and nearly done with associated doom, and I know from past experience that work alone does not wipe me out, so things should get better.
I am socking away as much money as I can for emergency (most likely: my computer kicking the bucket or requiring expensive repairs--although I'm hoping they're not too bad, once I am at a point where I can relinquish my computer for testing) and potentially living expenses if I don't get a job soon after my summer internship ends. If the job thing works out well, I'm going to throw most of that at my credit card debt next fall. Emotionally, I'd really like to do that now, but since my job future after August is so uncertain, it would be really stupid.
