I'm not participating in the challenge but I had to say Great Job to you for only spending that much!!! I don't know how ya'll do it, I spend more on produce and milk per month than your total!

I spent $50 (angel food order for April)
$4.61 - dollar store
$4.58 - local groc. store
$65.05 - Walmart
$1.79 - pizza sauce at groc. store
I'm halfway through my budget of $250 but won't have to buy much the week of the 20th because the angel food order comes in.

I spent $55.00 and some cents. My budget is $50 so I did o.k. but I really wanted it to be much closer or even under $50. I found a great deal on some Golden Plump chicken and I bought extra to freeze. Otherwise, I would've met my budget.

This week, I'm going to push to spend only $45 to make up the difference. It might just be "clean out the freezer" week.
