Budget 2010 Spending Report


Part of my new years resolution is to keep track of all of my grocery purchases.  I want to see where I spend/save the most money.  I encourage you to do the same. Each Monday I will post an updated list.  I think it will be neat to see what stores work for different people in different parts of the country.

Budget 2010


Do any of you remember when I used to keep my couponing savings posted? Well I think as a new years resolution I am going to try it again. I did really well last year until we went on our Summer Vacation and then I just stopped. Not really sure why just did. I do know that from Jan-July of 2009 I had saved over $6,000 and spent $2,000 but past that I couldn't even guess what the other half of the year looked like.

I will keep a running tab on the sidebar of this blog of totals and I challenge you to do the same. Every Monday we can compare our best purchases and the week and have a chance for more interaction with one another.
