If you had to cut your household budget, what would be the first thing to go?
If you had to cut your household budget to make ends meet, what would be the first thing to go?
DIANE BRUN, Franklin: “We would probably cut one of our cell phones with the data plan and all the extras on it.”
DEBBIE CUBBERLY, Miamisburg: “Cable. It’s phone, Internet and TV. I could live without them. I’ve got a cell phone, and I’m not on the computer that much. We could just make do with the local channels.”
DAN PRICE, Centerville: “If you told me to cut my beer and wine, I would not be happy, but everything else you need for survival.”
KIM LARKINS, Dayton: “Cable service. It’s $138 a month for TV, Internet and digital phone. I could survive without it. I’d have to read more.”
TINA WARNER, Beavercreek: “It would be cable TV and Internet, because they’re expensive, and they’re not necessities.”
LISA HARDY, Springboro: “Probably cable. I just have basic cable and the boxes for HD. You don’t need those. I’d have to play a lot more board games.”
CLYDE DESENSO, Hershey, Pa.: “I don’t have anything to cut that I haven’t cut already.”
DAVID SMITH, Clarksville, Tenn.: “I might cut cable and go to DirectTV or something else.”
