This is a challenge that was put out by Pinch This, Stretch That. I started the challenge on January 5th 2010. As my blog site mentions I am only couponing on a part-time basis, but wish I could commit more time to it. It's very addicting. With the Challenge put out by PTST, I felt like it was something attainable. So I will be listing my weekly spending's here:
Week 1:
Toiletries and Groceries = $199.33
Week 2:
Toiletries and Groceries = $252.92
Week 3:
Toiletries and Groceries = $163.01
Week 4:
Toiletries and Groceries = $289.89
Week 5:
Toiletries = $58.46
Groceries = $ 82.35
Eating Out = $23.39
Total Spent = $174.20
Week 6:
Toiletries = $31.45
Groceries = $80.47
Eating out = $32.49
Total Spent = $144.41
Week 7:
Toiletries = $57.56
Groceries = $55.74
Eating out = $22.83
Total Spent = $136.13
Week 8: ( at home most of this week sick, spent alot of time in the Drug stores waiting for RX's)
Toiletries = $157.29
Groceries = $0
Eating out = $45.43
Total Spent = $202.72
With the exception of Week 8 - you can see my weekly expenses have been going down quite a bit. I account this to my growing stockpile. With me being sick during weeks 7 and 8 we ate out more then budgeted for. I can't wait to see what the upcoming weeks will look like!
