Here is where I will keep a list of our spending for the month of August. Our monthly budget has changed due to a couple of unexpected hospital bills. Until we get them paid off, we are going to attempt to have a $200 grocery budget. This is for everything for our family of 6 and 2 pets. We didn't do that bad last month. We had $12 leftover from last month and that money was used to help fund our Sam's Club fund:) Let's see how we do this month:

Well, it seems we went over our $200 grocery budget big time. We are very thankful that my hubby's commission check was over what we had expected and we were able to use that to pay the overage in our grocery budget. Plus, we were able to stock up on flour, baking powder, dog food, beans, rice and pasta. That should help with September's budget :) We shall have to wait and see how we do in September.
