Money Saving Challenge Week 1 (1/18-1/25)

This week our money saving challenge is to spend close to nothing on groceries! My monthly goal from now on is $150.00. However for this month, I am trying to stay within $200.00 exactly and I am almost there!

I am on week four, even though it is not the end of January yet because I started early!

So far I have spent a grand total of $196.22! Wow that is actually great for me because I have previously been spending at least $600.00 a month (all on organics).

My challenge when I do my shopping this week is to get the things on my list that I have marked for free after coupons, and then try and stay under the $200.00 mark. Here's to hoping I have the self-discipline to make this happen!
