We did it! We made it to the store for only 35 something! Way under the 50 budgeted. course we can mostly thank my mother for buying a few extra things that we wouldn't normally before she left. and laving us with some salmon and steak in the freezer. but hey little victories.
I also got the electric bill for december and it was 50 something, which is under the 60$ that I was aiming for, I find the monthly bills harder to get down, cause you can't see as quickly the payoff. with the grocery store it is easy, I am there every week so I get a good idea of how my budget is doing, with the electric and stuff I don't find out if I am doing good for a whole month after I try a new habit.
