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!

November 2009 Budget Challenge

Posted 11-02-2009 at 07:42:09 AM by Cynthiabutterfly

It's starting to feel like less of a 'challenge' and more like a regular way of life to spend as little as possible, and stockpile only at the lowest rock-bottom prices.

Starting the month with:

CVS $8.65 gc $6.99 ecb
Wag $2.56 gc + $1 rr
Target $24.67 gc
Tom Thumb .13 gc (I've been there but haven't used my .13)
Braum's $5.92 gc

Trying to stay under my $40/wk budget.

October budget challenge

Posted 10-01-2009 at 12:56:00 PM by Cynthiabutterfly

A brand new month with brand new possibilities!

I already have my Halloween candy stashed, and my decorations out.

I just looked at the preview for this coming Sunday's coupons, and saw coupons for Karo, Argo, Fleishmann's, and Carnation milk.

I am all tingly with delight, as the holiday baking sales are near, fall is my favorite season, and Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday.

Starting this excellent month with:
CVS $9.98 ecb + $16.04...
