It's like- oh look! I have $20! And you can't track where you spend cash! WOO! Not a good plan. :) I think that generally frugal behavior is a perfect plan. I wish you luck in your job hunt!!

I've been unemployed for about five months now, doing some freelance work here and there but nothing to justify real spending. So far, my best tactic is to observe generally frugal behavior across the board: choosing to cook instead of go out, choosing to walk instead of drive, staying in instead of going out. This mostly offsets the travel I've been doing, but I also network while I'm traveling to make sure that it's productive. I deal best with NOT carrying cash, so I just stay on top of my online banking to stay abreast of spending. Funny, I’ve noticed the very same thing!
