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.
We went shopping this weekend and spent
Aldi's was around $54
Walmart was around $196

We're done for the month.

Overspent by: $26

Well, we're over budget for the month. There is a great promo going on at our grocer's and I couldn't resist...

Budget for May: $500.00 (groceries and eating out)
Starting balance: $64.65

Smart & Final

5/17 $ 22.38
5/18 $ 21.00

Vons

5/22 $ 53.50
5/23 $ 46.97
5/23 $ 6.48

Jack in the Box

5/23 $ 9.08

Total: $ 159.41

Subtotal: $ 64.51 - $159.41 = $ 94.90 over for May
