Ok so its only the second day of Feb, but heres what I spent already....

Dan's Supermarket-34.83
Walmart- 63.37

Normally I don't spend so much and groceries and stuff for the week, but I had some stocking up to do and there were some good sales at Dans....Doritos 3/5.00(1.67 a bag) and kraft salad dressing 3/5.00 Those might not seem like good deals to some, but out here in no-where land, thats pretty good! LOL

I also had to get a few things for Valentines day( I spent 3.99 to be exact), I didn't have to get too much though since I bought a bunch last year for 75% off.

Feb 4th...I just spent 20.20 at the dollar store!!! Some scrapbooking stuff, let the kids each pick 2 toys, some bubble bath, some organizers for scrapbooking stuff, it all added up though.

Well, I had the unfortunate of having to buy my mom's b-day present, anniversary stuff and stuff for my dd's preschool valentine's party- all together $65.17. I was hoping not to have to spend that much- I am going to go through my grandma's bead stash and hopefully I can return the $16 worth of beads I had to buy!

So far so good for me. We spent 18.43 on movie rentals but that is our only entertainment cost I think for the weekend.
I also spent 19.59 on needed clothing for DS, but they were second hand. I got Nike running shoes, cords, sporty type pants and a pair of new-tags-still-on GAP overalls for next year.
My goal was to decrease spending this month, but I already see a few issues. I need more W. W. passes, and am having company next weekend. It's going to be tricky!

I've already spent my grocery budget for the week, $75 is all I'm allowed. I still have $4 left and I need eggs and bread. And with today being Cameron's bday, I bought him a train at TRU, it cost me $7.41.

I did a lot of stocking up too this week. I bought hamburger today for 1.97 lb! I bought 6 lbs, hehehe. And yesterday another store had a deal that if you spent $25, you got a sprial ham for .99lb!! SO I had to make sure I got in on that deal. Plus they had some other awesome deals so I actually spent $47 there. And I got $3 back because they mismarked the toothpaste on sale and over charged me.

I have already started out on a bad foot. Yesterday I spent 51.77 at on produce, baby wipes, oven cleaner and soda. Then I went over to target and spent another 54.68 on stuff for Tyler's room. The had all there kids room stuff on clearance and I got three large bins for under his bed at 50% off. They were orgianlly 29.99 and I paid 13.98 for them. I also bought a bottle of wine. What really threw me off was all the produce I bought at walmart other than the cucumber was organic. Organic stuff is soooo expensive but i buy it when I can and I think its am important investment in our health so I dont feel too bad.

Today I am going to my moms house which is three hours away. And my brother has a new girlfriend which I have to meet and we are going out to dinner tonight.I will spend 20.00 on a dinner and a cocktail (lord knows I will need that cocktail after the car ride-my mother and yet one more new girlfriend!)
