Week Two

I've finished most of my shopping for the week. We're going camping next week so I'll do shopping for our trip on Thurs. Here is my total so far:

11th - $9.06 (Kroger)
11th - $20.76 (Little Caesars)
12th $11.79 (McDonalds)
12th - $32.84 (Kroger)
13th - $25.71 (Food City)
13th - $3.55 (Target)


Total for the week: $103.71
Grocery total for the week: $71.16

Grand total for the month of July for both groceries and restaurants: $194.84
Groceries: $139.35
Restaurants: $55.13

If you try to reconcile this number with previous posts it's off by a few cents. The numbers I used for this post come from my budgeting software and are the "official" numbers. Considering that it's almost halfway through the month and I've only spent appr. $200 of my $550 budget (total for groceries and restaurants) I feel like I'm pretty much on track to save $100 for the month - if I continue to watch my spending. I also collected $20 in coupons to use at Kroger next week from my purchases this week, so that should help keep my spending down next week.
