June Month End Review

Well..I am quite a bit over budget this month. The big culprit? FAST FOOD. I got carried away with busy baseball game season..and went for the quick and easy dinners far too much.  I spent $81.57 on fast food alone. Some I spent on concessions, but most of it was the quick dinners at MickyDs.

Shameful, I know. (I am hanging my head in shame right now)

Anyhoo..next sport season I will be better prepared. Perhaps I will gear up with freezer meals. Or have dinner before practice. Do any of you have any great ideas for avoiding fast food during sports practice/game seasons? I would love for your tips!!

I had a Walgreens Trip last week I am now mentioning. I bought all this peanut butter,uno game, bread and milk for $29.11 but I still have $8 in RR left to spend.

Last weeks Albertsons Run: Spent $12.86,  Saved $28.31 (Bought lots of Sara Lee buns and bread)

Some other shopping not mentioned: A Costco Run, hamburger patties, tons of bottled water, Plastic Wrap plus a few other goodies.

2009 Y2D TOTAL SPENT: $1440
2009 Y2D TOTAL SAVED: $4070
