This month I squeaked in under budget with 26¢ to spare. I began the month
with a $42.22 deficit. Now I have a
deficit to carryover of $41.96. I'll
just continue chipping away at it.
Our nonfood items
came in a at $23.74. I stocked up on bath soap, dish soap, more T. P. because it was a killer deal, and tissues.
I also bought canned cat food, litter, and some toiletries.
Here is the list of
all the food items I bought last month.
The items in red are my stock up
