Since I always shop on Thursdays, it throws my monthly budget ($300 for all food, personal care, cleaning, paper, & baby products) for a loop when there is a fifth Thursday in the month! That said, I definitely went over budget this month. But, because there are so many months when I am under my $300 budget, it usually all washes out by the end of the year.
Total value of all purchases in March = $902.74
Total amount spent out of pocket after sales & coupons = $383.74
Total amount saved = $519.00 (or 57%)
Year to date savings...
Total value of all purchases in 2011 = $2,488.16
Total amount spent out of pocket = $994.74
Total amount saved = $1,493.42 (or 60%)!
How are you doing so far this year? I'd love for you to post a comment below!
