-------------
$111.67 Left

Spent so far = $92.39
Local Grocery = $6.00

Left to spend = $341.61

I'm in for 300.00
So far I've spent 63.04 at Walmart and 22.54 at HEB. I can't really buy anything else right now. My pantry is super full and so are the freezers. The only thing I think I may need throughout the month are milk, toilet paper and medicines, juice boxes and a couple of snacks for the kids' lunches.

Better late than never

As usual, my budget is 320.00 or 80.00/week.

This week:
$38.24 at Trader Joe's
$61.57 at Mollie Stone's (I didn't get to Farmer's Market and they have good produce)

$99.81 total, oops

320-80 (last week)=240-99.81= $140.00

I did buy some things like paper towels, dried beans and lentils, butter, bulk brown rice that I normally don't buy weekly. Some of this will also go into the following week, so I'll budget accordingly, only $60 for next week instead of $80.

Left in budget - 341.61
Walmart - 32.56
HEB - 43.62

Left to spend = $265.43

Our budget is $200 a month for four of us. The kids don't each too much yet.
Milk is killing our budget, so we are going back on WIC again. I was just using it to get formula before, but my husband's work is slow right now, so we need all the help we can get.

My budget is $500.00 for everything for 2 adults, two kids (Anna, Zach) 2 dogs and 2 cats.
MY main challenges are both of the kids birthdays are this thursday the 13th and Easter
fall within the same pay check.

If I'm really careful and leave the kids at home...I can do this.

Goal is $500 for the month - that's for five of us and includes all food, cleaning supplies, hba, etc.
