Lisa's Shop and Tell

I am in the process of a shopping experiment and it is working out well so far. I am trying to stretch my shopping trips to every 10 days, eliminating one shopping trip a month. I have increased my "10 day" budget to $120.00. Thus leaving me an extra $40.00 a month that will give me a little more wiggle room to play with.

The past two shopping trips I have been able to restock my cereal and treat supply. It is so nice to have 20 boxes of cereal again. I think I sleep better when I know that I have tons of cereal stashed away. So here is my breakdown from today. I hit Albertsons, Smiths and a small trip to Walmart. Overall I spent $119.12 - WaHoO!!!! I love when I come in under my budget, even $0.88 makes me want to dance.
