We're growing more and more of our own food, and we have a huge freezer in the garage and buy bulk whenever something is "on special." Not so long ago, we decided to forego garbage and recycling pickup ($90/month) and haul our own to the dump (not far from us) at $10 per trip, every six weeks or so.

Whereas Hive isn't much of a "side hustle," it does offer us a way to save during difficult times, simply by stacking Hive Power. Of course, it remains to be seen whether Hive goes up or down... but hopefully we will have "something" by the time we emerge on the other side.
