Grocery Budget Update - March

Our grocery budget was soooo much better this month.  For starters I stayed on budget.  I am really happy with my purchases.  We had everything we needed and then some.  It just doesn’t get any better than that! 

My non-food budget came in at $25.36 for two bags of cat food and two of litter.  I bartered with my mother for a case of toilet paper from Costco. 

The items in blue are my pantry stock up items.  This is what I bought this month:
