So here is how my NEW budget is going to look:
$40 per week (down from $60 in 2009) for our household consumables- groceries, hba, cleaning supplies and paper products for me, DH and 2 ds's (6yo and 3yo) 3 cats and one mini pin (dog, <15 lbs) I am also including costs for my newspapers, I typically buy 5-10 every week.
I also do surveys to earn Paypal credits, some occasional rebates and pay-to-click for gift cards. These funds are funnelled back into my budget.
Here's to my goal of $2010 in 2010!

I went overboard for the Memorial day stuff, the other 3 weeks I was under budget!
I am starting the June Challenge- live off your stockpile, so I'm hoping to trim my budget to $40/week at least for this month. I'll be only be buying essentials and needed items to use up my stockpile.
