squeaking problem

When I take off from a stop I hear squeaking around the suspension/cv axel area underneath my car. Also when I go over speed bumps, when I turn the steering wheel at low speeds, pulling into parking spots, etc.....it's squeaks loudly and it's very irritating and embarassing. Can anyone tell me what the problem is? I know it's probably something simple but I just bought my FC and am still learning about cars altogether...anything will help.

Thanks!

I didn't know struts were that expensive......

Anyone know of a good online shop for affordable parts? Not cheap....just affordable. Is sportcompactonly.com a good one?

Get yourself a set of KYB Gas-A-Just for the rear.... OEM replacement, good quality, and super cheap.
