Reviewing the budget

January 8th, 2015 at 06:11 pm

I went over my expected income vs budgeted amounts today and I am really hoping to be able to pay $1000 off my line of credit this month. I put $100 towards it already today, I also paid my cellphone/internet which was $7 less then expected.

I was hoping for a no spend day but need to run to the post office to mail a letter, I also need to pick up a few things for my home business.

This weekend will hopefully be low spend, going for supper with friends Friday evening, Saturday will be the normal grocery shop, and Sunday dd is invited to a birthday party. I have some stocked up items in my gift closet I purchased on clearance after Christmas so we will find something in there and dd will make a card.

I'm working really hard to use up left overs lately to, very happy with myself. Would love to cut back in waste!

    Good on you for using leftovers. If it helps, jot a list of those combinations that worked for you. Will your family accept Shepherd's Pie, Stroganoff, Enchiladas, Curry, Lo Mein or Taco Salad, Stew or Beef Bourguogion as a Roast Beef plan-over?
