Thanks for posting the expenses, that will help everyone alot. Much of what you're able to reduce is going to be sort of nickel-and-dime type stuff, just a few dollars here and there.

Cell phone-- are you in a contract right now? What % of your available minutes do you use? Do you text often? Look at changing to a lower plan. Most companies have a basic plan(500-ish minutes) around $40, then a higher plan at levels every $10-$20. Eliminate texting and any other add-ons, then swich to as low (in minutes) a plan possible. Find out how many minutes you average per month, add a 10-20% buffer, and get a plan as close to that as you can.

Could you refinance your auto loan, or trade down to a cheaper car? That's a BIG payment, so you either have an expensive car or a really high interest rate (or both). Also, look into higher insurance deductibles, and reassess what coverages you have, and if you really need them as is. Make sure you're adequately insured, but no point in being over-insured.

Esp. if you're working the door at a bar, the gym membership is understandable. However, is there a cheaper gym you could look into?

The parking pass is a good idea. A better idea would be to use public transit if possible. Sounds like you live in a larger city, so they probably have a public transit program. Getting a monthly bus pass would save on parking and also on gas.
