Total spent for the week - $109.89. Yikes. BUT, I had $18.81 left over from last week AND my $20.00 Kraft rebate came this week!!! So, I had $113.81 left for the month when I started this week. That brings me to $3.92 left to spend (if I absolutely need something). I hope I don't!
Great job this month! What a CHALLENGE!

I am trying to go without on the paper plates, I still manage to need to run the dishwasher. I can be saving another $3-4. Try and figure that into your works. It may help. Sounds like you are doing great.
