Our Shopping Day~ 09/29/2013

We have changed our shopping day from Monday to Sunday.  We decided to change our shopping days due to all the school aged boys are being homeschooled. Shopping on Mondays would take away from our school day, so that is not an option.  Plus, the church's we are looking at attending are a lot closer than the church we attended while living in Virginia.  So, it is easy to go to church, come home, eat lunch and go shopping.

Here is our major grocery haul for this week:

Oh my- it looks like we almost busted our grocery budget with just 1 shopping day.  Now, time to sit down with the budget and see if we can create some wiggle room for the rest of the month :)  Looks like we need to adjust the grocery budget from $300 to $400 for this month.

This shopping trip has been added to our October Monthly Spending post, where I keep track of what we spend for the month of October.
