I am going to try for $375 this month for a family of 5.
Me and DH, 14, 8 and 2 year old kids, 1 dog. This will include all diapers, groceries, cleaning supplies and any eating out.

My budget this month is $325. I won't be going over, b/c that is all I have!! We are a family of 5 - me, DH, DS-6, DS-3, DS-5 MONTHS. And this includes formula!!! Wish me luck!!!!
But the good thing is I am stocked up on diapers & my 3 yr old is potty trained!!!

We will be spending:$220 or less
FOOD: Between $160-$170 (feeding two adults (I am pregnant) and a toddler.
NON-FOOD ITEMS (including cleaning supplies, diapers and wipes): $40-$50

The only time we ever go over is when we have to buy stamps and didn't realize it until they were gone.

I'm in this month for $300. I had a budget last month for $250 and blew it by at least $60. I don't think I can do it for $250 based on what I have on hand. I'm feeding 2 adults, 1 preschooler, 1 toddler, 2 big dogs, 1 little dog, 2 cats. Oh yeah didn't anyone tell you we're running a petting farm here.
I already did my angel food order for this month so there is $50 spent. $250 left.

Wow my budget is really high for just me and noah and his diapers lol. Compared to others lol
