Saturday Spending Recap

by Danielle on December 26, 2009

This week I only had to grab diapers and wipes before our trip.  Since we’ve been gone we haven’t had too many expenses other than gas.  I should stay within budget easily this month.  Here is what I spent for the week:

piggybank

Target- $16.73 1 jumbo box diapers and wipes

Weekly Total $16.73

Monthly Total $16.73

There won’t be many changes with our budget in the new year.  My family is trying to stick with our $40 per week grocery and household budget and a $60 montly eating out budget.

With the New Year stating next week, I strongly encourage you to give yourself a weekly budget and try to stick within it.  Start small and don’t compare numbers because your family eats different and has different needs than other families.

A few things to help you stay within a budget are to create a menu plan, shop the sales, and eat what’s on sale that week.  If menu planning is new to you, start with one week at a time.  Keep it simple and have fun!
