My $50 Budget - Saved 62%

Here are my shopping trips for last week. There wasn't much on sale that interested me, but I still spend most of my budget.

This is "Reality Couponing.".  Some weeks there are great deals and other weeks not so much.

Sunday's Shopping:

• Walgreens:  Aleve, South Beach Diet Bars & Walgreens Chocolate Covered Raisin as my filler items
• Aldi:  Dairy, bread, ham (clearance priced) and produce  

Wednesday Shopping :

• Schnucks:  Not pictured is a bag of Navy Beans.  I had to run out mid-weed to pick them up to make Bean Soup.  It's been a long time since I've needed to run to the store for one item. Since I was at Schnucks I picked up the few other items on sale.

My Splurge fund is the amount of money I haven't spent out of grocery budget.  I might spend it on groceries, or I might save it for a larger non-grocery purchase.
