May 2011

Totals include trips to Costco, CVS, Kroger, Target, Wal-Mart, and Walgreen's.  Below are the primary stores I shopped at last month. I would like to bring this down as I continue to purchase things while they are on sale and using coupons.  I have seen many people setting their grocery budget at $40/week and I think I could easily do between $40-$50.  Target included purchasing 2 Similac cartons in preparation for the baby due in July.  We currently are doing well stocking up on formula and diapers using coupons.  I plan to continue to track our spending since this will help keep me accountable and continue to bring our out of pocket expenses down!
