Question
Answer:
Okay so obviously she needs food and water so you can not take that out, but depending how far she goes for work and only go to the store once a week and save maybe like $45 on gas if she only goes to the store and store for maybe 2-3 weeks that will leave her with only $80 in det. Also she could save like lets say $20 a week by not going to the movies, also lets say go a little lower on groceries and only get only what she really needs, so take maybe $25 out of that and that will leave her with only $35 over. and who really needs cable all you really need is internet. So take and split the bill witch would be $65, witch would leave her with $30 extra a week plus the $25 in savings.
