Spent $62.26 on Saturday to get me through to the end of the month. Leaving me with $59.64.

Guess I'll cut the budget by another $50 for next month. That means next months budget will be $350.

DH left about 30 minutes ago for a job interview in Heidleburg (a 1:10 drive from here). If he gets that job it means another move, but it will be worth it!!!

I spent $94 and change at Shop Rite and the deli/produce store this week, so I am about $40 under budget for the month!
