Oh yes! I was also thinking about this just this morning when I took the dog outside. Specifically of the $130+ dollars I have not spent in 13 days. My husband and I fell into some financial trouble last year when he got hurt and had to change occupations. He brings home less than half of what he used to and his work prior to that was seasonal. He got hurt going into the peak season and we never recovered from the credit we lived on during the off season. $300+ more per month will make all the difference in the world as we slowly dig out.
