That’s it! I still need more bread and hamburger buns. I’ll need more lettuce or veggies before the month is out. If I see a good sale on something I always use, I’ll buy it. I’ve spent $125.30 of my $200 budget. That means I have almost $75 left for the rest of the month. I do actually have everything I need to make my meals for the next four weeks. All I’ll want is more produce and milk, but those are not must haves… just want-to-haves. (for us) I really wanted some squash to roast, but it was very expensive, so that’s why we have broccoli. 🙂 I’ll keep you posted on what we eat and how much I spend!
