Planning a budget is hard.
Trying to stay on budget can be harder.
Right now I have my budget for groceries at $75 per week.
Is that enough?
Do I need to reduce it?
I started with a $75 balance on Sunday, January 6th.
On January 13th, 20th, and 27th I added an additional $75.00
In four weeks I spent a total of $185.04.
I have a left over balance of $115.96 for the four weeks.
Check out some of my shopping trips, here, here and here.
Do I start fresh every four weeks with a zero balance, or keep a running tally?
Right now, I think I am going to keep a running tally.
Maybe, if I have a bunch of money left in a few months, I will buy something really crazy.
I could buy a replica of the leg lamp from “A Christmas Story.”
Now wouldn’t that be great!
I might look good in fish net too : )
