For me it's energy. My gas and electricity prices are twice what they were a year ago. The move by many utility companies to having to pay your whole bill all at once rather than say ¼ per week is really not helping.

Housing is by far the biggest expense for me. I look at the increasing number of tents in my city and know that I'm only one or two rent increases away from joining them.
