In the spirit of the recession (my, that sounds sad) I thought I’d share a thrifty new blog that one of my friends started recently. In LaidOffLadies.com, she and her co-author share must-visit Web sites and budget-friendly deals that those of us pinching pennies or in a financial pickle would be wise to check out. They focus particularly on Chicago, where they’re both “living on the North Side, trying to figure how to keep our Kate Spade notepad and pay our heat bill, too.” Both journalists, they know the realities of layoffs all too well. (I met my friend through an internship at a Quad City newspaper.)
As more and more Americans face layoffs and economic uncertainty, the companies who many trend reports predict will strive this year are like the ones mentioned in this blog. Companies who care about their consumers’ bottom lines, not just their own.
What’s your company’s game plan?
