I put $25 in the gas tank and paid $4 for a prescription. Tomorrow is the last day of the financial week for us. DH is due for some gas soon, so we should end the week up right under $100. This tank of gas should last me at least a week though.

Week 2
Gas $39.52
Groceries/Other: $44.43

Week 1 Total: $71.06

No money spent. Papers were paid for with a CVS gc.


Wow - I'm looking at the calendar on my desk, and I'm pushing towards halfway through the month. I can't wait to see what my month total spending will be!

Food prices are kicking my butt. I'm having trouble keeping under $25 a week. I bought 9 packs of Electrasol, produce, eggs, soda, bread, and some other misc deals and the total was still $40. Potatoes are $4 a bag - that kills me. I suppose if I look it at from a total view of staying under $100 a week for food and gas I'm definitely successful. I guess that $25 budget I had a few years ago just isn't do-able anymore :sad:. If I hadn't done a little stockpiling I would have barely managed...

I ended up bringing snacks to tide us over until we got home from Orlando. I had to work through lunch; I'd planned on going home to prepare a small car picnic, but those plans were foiled. We raced home - it was mighty hard to pass all those fast food places and nice restaurants I love! We had a wonderful time though, and it was sooooo nice to spend some time with DH.

I will need to go to the grocery store tomorrow, and I'll need gas after the trip to Orlando. I know DH will...
