So, I've been decent on my money lately. My schedule has been insane with work, but I've been doing a decent job of packing my lunch. I've been using a lot of free meal coupons to get some meals when I've gotten desperate! (I'm putting together a list of those to put up on the blog soonly!)
So far this year I've spent about $20 on food- including groceries and a few bad trips through the Drive-Thru. More than I was aiming for (I'm trying to spend less than $100 for the year- which puts me about $2/week).
I am stocked up on some good stuff, though. And it really has made me think twice about going out to eat a lot. So even though I'm a bit above my goal, I'm still doing WAY better than usual!
Also, except for a few small other purchases (I just HAD to get the new You Don't Know Jack video game for the XBox- that used to be my favorite! Plus, I had a coupon code for part of it!) and some stuff from Office Depot (Yeah, I spent a lot, but I'll be getting back beaucoup in rewards- plus I REALLY needed massive amounts of tubs for storage.. Might as well get them for free-ish!) I've been pretty good with my other spending. Working a lot helps keep me from shopping!
So, I'm doing pretty well on the Finance track. Now only if I had some more time to exercise, I'd be doing alright on the Weightloss track...
