I've been trying to cut down our grocery bill, it gets pretty bad sometimes. Normally I spend about 135 per week including pet, cleaning items etc... I've been trying to budget every two weeks. I was just adding everything up and I managed to do 142.54 for TWO weeks, including going out to eat twice because we had company. It is still higher then where I want to be but wow, I cut it in half... I'm just pretty excited on how much $$ I actually have left over this period

I think that's great, that's a nice savings too and that's for 2 weeks! Keep up the great work

YEA for you! That's a tremendous cut. I could probably do somthing like that for a short burst, while I use up things in the kitchen, but could probably not sustain it very well.
