So I have been trying to be better with budgets and grocery shopping. I struggle with this not going to lie but today I had a success! I have been trying to stay under $100 a month so every pay check I go and stock up and try to spend $50. This month I have done really well actually. Anyway today I went shopping. Not really looking forward to it but we ran out of milk and Sloan can't live with out it. :) This really is more for me than anything. I want to make sure that I have it written down somewhere I won't throw it out! :) I shopped at Walmart and Alberstons here are my lists:
