Saved 70% This Week

I had a very strange shopping week. I didn't do much shopping last week, so on Saturday I stopped at Ace Hardware, Sappington Farmers Market and Deirbergs.  There were some great deals I didn't want to miss.  When I heard about the predicted storm, I was very happy I had gone on Saturday.

Splurge Funds: $229.40

For those who don't read my blog on a regular basis, my splurge funds are the difference between what I've actually spent and my $50 budget. I use it for those items I never find on sale, don't have coupons for, or when I'm over budget.
