October Budget!

A little update to my Shaws trip! I went to the store and most of the items were even cheaper :)

Strawberries 2.00 was 1.88
3 Pillsbury Pie Crusts 7.50 was 7.50
7 Pillsbury Ready to Bake Cookies 21.00 was 20.98
2 Oreos 4.44 was 3.98
4 Cans of Pumpkin 4.00 was 4.00

I added a few items to the list while I was there
Shaws Reusable Grocery bag 1.00(going Green)
.60 Discount loaf of Sandwich bread

Total: 38.94 was 38.34
-5.00 Shaws wyb 10 Pillsbury Products
-.75 Pie Crust coupon
-.75 Pie Crust coupon doubling
-1.00 Ready to bake coupon
-3.00 3 1/2 Ready to bake coupons
-1.00 Shaws Oreo coupon

Total oop: 27.44 was 28.44

So I only spent 1.00 more but got a green bag and a loaf of bread!


I've also decided that I am going to add 100.00 dollars to the Food Budget and rename it the Food and Household Budget. Basically anything but GAS will go into this category! I am going to go ahead and subtract the 2 weeks of CVS and Wags I already have planned out :)I've spent 17.55 At Wags, Rite Aid and CVS so far this month so I will deduct those also! I will get 5 back from Rite Aid but when I get it I will just add it back into the budget :)


October Food and Household Budget 350
Spent 167.52
Left to spend 182.48
