Well went grocery shopping yesterday and spent 211.00 - that is for 2 weeks worth of dinners, all breakfasts and most lunches. Some lunches will also be leftovers. Will need to go back for milk, but that should be it! WOOHOO! I think I did pretty good. I went with my menus, grocery list and coupons. I went through the flyer and marked my list. I was quite impressed with myself. Saved $45 with coupons!! I normally don't use coupons but may become a believer now.
Laundry is still being washed in cold - all of it. Hung on the line. Next week the meter guy reads the meter and I will be right out there after to start my month of tracking kwh. I know we can do better.
No heat/a/c have been on yet either!
I am a wahm (working for a couple different teleservices companies) well I applied for a position to write a frugal corner tidbit weekly and was accepted! It doesn't pay, but will give me more experience with my writing - wo I am thrilled!! Maybe someday I can write for pay! LOL
I have a cold tonight - so I am going to bed early - dh siad oh you need some meds - I'll run to the store and get some. I told him to look in the linen closet top shelf - stockpiling sure does pay off! LOL got what I needed and didn't have to spend a penny! Love it!
Have a great weekend!
