I happily spent a vast majority of our grocery budget on fresh
produce. I also stocked up on cream
cheese, sour cream, tomato sauce and pasta among of few other things.
My non food items budget is $25 a month and I had $3.11 leftover
from February to roll over and add to it making it $28.11. I bought aluminum foil, some cleaning
supplies and stocked up on toilet paper spending $15.11 and leaving me with $12.63 left to roll over
next month and use.
Here is the list of food I bought.
The items highlighted in red are my stock up items:

Next month I am hoping for a good buy on sugar and as always meat
and cheese. Did you stock up on anything
this month? Any super deals?
You are amazing! I am so impressed with how much you get every month for the amount you spend. High Five to you! And lots of stock up items too- way to go! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you Dawn. I just keep plugging away at it. I have to admit I was pretty excited with some of the buys I found this month.
