Family and friends for sure. Like as said before... other than the necessities, I could live without a lot.
On a related note, we just canceled our cable last week. in the five days we've gone without, we've done so much more around the house, plus found other... uh... entertaining things to do. I don't miss TV one bit, and it's saving us $40/month.
We're also selling my g/f's 05 Mazda 3 sedan. We found we use my car for most everything, including commuting together. And when one of us needs the car the other either bikes or scoots (150cc scooter) to work. Saving us $450/month (payment/insurance/gas), too. We're going to miss the awesomeness of it, but its just not worth it. Plus, if/when we DO have to buy another car in the future, g/f gets to choose it.
