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.

i have to say i spent nothing today!!!! I am hoping to not need to get anything this weekend but it is soooo cold here I think I can do it who wants to go outside?

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!

So far we have spent 21.00 that was for food this month. that is all so far.

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.

Back together!! Sept 28th Boston TDCenter!! Woohooooo!

February is gonna be a wreck-as was January... blah

If it is ok with everyone I might tell my spending for a 2-4 day period in one post!!! I write it down. I can remeber

Feb 1- 0.00
Feb 2- Got pizza for dinner..... no extra time to cook & bought my mother and father in law a anniversary present (last minute I forgot). SPLURE- cappacino at work becuase I could not resist the smell.

Total: near 32.00



OK for 2 days.... Grocery Shopping Tommarow YIKES

37.00 at the grocery store - Got a package of no name pork chops, 2 frozen pizzas, two bags of corn, a can of cheese soup, and 20 lean cuisines

36 on gas to fill my van

9.57 on a children's bible for my nephews baptism

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!)
