Making Adjustments Because of the Economy?

While many people are being negatively affected by the economy, others are not. Are you at a point where you have decided to make adjustments in the way you live? If so, care to share any that may help others fare well during these times?  I have been against rising gas prices since it started reaching $2 a gallon, so I've monitored my gas purchases since then, however, now, I don't drive as much, and when I do drive to shop, I go to an area where I can do all of my shopping at one time. Also, even though prices are a little higher, I'm shopping more in DC, instead of driving to Maryland to shop.  I take the metro more often. I also take my lunch, it's healthier and much less expensive, and just over all spend less. Many of us have made shopping a pastime, and it's past time to let that go.
