I bought these for Brat Brittany awhile back along with the pill pockets. They wouldn't fit. UGH!!

No wasted money so far this month! We haven't gone anywhere except this past Saturday was our Mothers of Multiples Club's Christmas Party, which was about 45 minutes away. It is free (and includes free breakfast- donuts, coffee, fruit, juice, yay!) and we shouldn't go over our gas budget for the trip since we will be home a lot this month anyway. Plus it was a nice, free, treat and the kids got to get their pictures with Santa, which is also free! No expensive mall Santas here!
Oh here is a little tip if you have little ones, see if your local Walgreens will have a Santa photo shoot day, ours always does and its only like $5 for a bunch of pictures!

Okay, I am in, only unbudgeted money so far this month is $32.00. Spent at an Amish bakrey between here and hubbs dentist. I should have known better than to even think about stopping
I do all of my own baking, but theirs always seems soooo much better.

$0.94 on a Maple Dip doughnut from Tim Hortons (because I had to break a $20 for DS8 to have bus fare tomorrow).

Dec. 3 - no wasted money
Dec. 4 - no wasted money
Dec. 5 - picked up supplements I needed. No wasted money there.2013 Challenges
