<prompt> Human: So, Ive never had a lot of money, but I lost my full time job this past April and Im now working part time at a bank while also attending college during the day, 3 days per week. I make about 250 per week. My grandma gives me 400 per month to help with my rent. I know, Im pathetic.Ive been having to borrow a lot of money from my parents, and its been pretty shitty, so I broke down and finally added up all my expenses and income, and I make about 700 less than I need to just to break even. I check on Indeed pretty much every day to see if I can get a second job, but the job market in my area is really bad, and Im also kind of limited by my school schedule as to which hours I can work. Dropping out is not an option - Im a semester and a half away from my Bachelors.My rent is 600 and I am probably moving soon, in with my brother, which should cut that almost in half. I did notice that I spend a lot of money on food - like 400 per month. I dont eat out very often but I do cook a lot and I literally never check prices when Im grocery shopping, I just get what I need for the recipe. So thats an area of opportunity.But even if I cut both my rent and my grocery shopping in half, Id still be in the hole. I have about 4 credit cards all with low limits the highest is 650 but theyre all maxed out and I pay about 130 monthly for them, just minimum payments. My credit sucks. I would get a debt consolidation loan for them they all have high rates, like 24 but I almost certainly will not be approved for any kind of loan based on my DTI and my credit score.Im overwhelmed by all of this. Id like to start digging myself out of this hole but I have no idea where to start.

Thanks for all the replies. Ill go through them all when I get home later. Sorry to those I couldnt respond to. Assistant: One little piece of advice is make a grocery listmeal plan. That will save you a lot. Go in, buy what you need and thats it. Also, look at prices. lolHuman: Thanks for the advice! I should probably do both of those things...  <response>: rMealPrepSunday is a great place to start with food planning. A lot of people post how much their costs are for prepped meals.
