We've already done some shopping this month. We'll be shopping for me, dh, our 2 dd's and our 2 dogs. They'll need dog food this month.

Aldi's was around $46
Walmart was around $30

We will be going to Aldi's & Walmart on Saturday. So I'll be compiling a menu for our family and a list to follow!

I would like to stay under $300.00
So far this month we've spent: $76
So we have this much left: $224

I will not be buying bread anymore. But this time around I will be buying meats. Which will knock alot out of our wallets if I'm not smart about my meal planning.

This will be the month my bread maker gets dusted off and my desserts are all handmade. NO MORE impulse buys!!

I'm starting high because I need to slowly pull the bill down.
