Groceries...
I'd thought about posting this(but since there's no pics involved i was hesitant) But anyway here goes. Bo & I sat down one evening about a month ago and did some budgeting. We ended up spening WAY more money than was neccessary on groceries that month.(and I was even buying everything generic) So I told him I was limiting myself to $125 /week. Well this week I went to Frys on Tuesday and they were having a pretty good sale, so I took advantage of it. I bought everything we needed and then some and when the cashier was ringing all my groceries in, the total kept going higher and higher, she still had a few items to go and the total was almost $200. So I was thinking to myself "well this will just come out of next weeks budget." THEN i handed her my Fry's card and the total kept going down and down and down. My grand total was $122.50. I was so proud of myself. I saved $77 (I think) on my reciept is said a savings of 33%. That to me is amazing (with the rising cost of groceries ). So ya, thats it. GO FRY'S

Good for you! I need to budget better. Any tips?? :)
That is awesome girly!!!
I love your new blog. Sorry Ihaven't checked in on you in forever. We are never in town lately and have a few more trips to go on soon. That is funny that you are blogging about budgeting because we just put together one for the first time. Crazy. Now that school is over we can do that. Way to go on the savings..it makes you feel good.
That's awesome. I did that deal too, I was so surprised at how much I saved. They also had tons of diapers on clearance the big box of pampers for 14.99 reg.29.99. Gotta get prepared for this baby coming in two months. : ) Good job on the shopping.
