This week we did a little better. We went out to breakfast at Cracker Barrel twice, went to lunch at a Chinese place once, bought a boatload of groceries (but it was SUCH a good SALE!). We filled the truck with fuel, and drove about 250 miles over to the Superstition Mountains on an all day sightseeing trip, where we paid for a guided tour of a gold mine, snacks and lunch at a ghost town (more on that later).
This morning we did the count, and have $28.52 left of our $300. So, this makes us at the end of week three, under budget by $25.95. So far, so good. And we’re not sitting here bored to tears, either.

I’m sure keeping track is going to be great for you and saving money and living on a budget.

November 24, 2008 at 9:51 pmMuch better job this time! Now I need to get my budget action on… If I overdraft the account for a 3rd pay period I am going to kick my own butt!
