We had some spending last week, but nothing that wasn't budgeted for...
No Spend Days
These don’t include regular bills (utilities, etc) only discretionary spending.
Sunday - household soap $3.78, gas $30.53, drugstore.com $39.42 (saved $2.22 plus $5 off plus free shipping), check for $32.75 for F’s hot lunches through the rest of the year at school
Monday - NSD
Tuesday - bought bday present for F ($40), bought her soccer socks ($15 for two pairs)
Wednesday - NSD
Thursday - F’s horse riding canceled; stopped for ice cream and rolaids (yes, they go together!)
Friday - big outing: $20 lunch, $18 mini golf and arcade, $2 slushes, $5.62 clothes for F
Saturday - NSD
groceries (as usual) - but they were lower than budgeted
The Old Navy stop turned out to be really great! I had a $35 reward coupon, and they were also having a big sale. We ended up filling out F's summer clothes (so now she's all set) for $5.62. Bought 3 long-sleeved t-shirts, one pair of capris, two short sleeved t-shirts, a skort and a pair of shorts. She already has about 3 pairs of capris and about 5 short sleeved t-shirts, also a few cotton dresses that fit. The hard thing is she's getting taller but is still very thin, so if something is an ok length, it's too big, and if it fits, it's too short. I will end up taking the skort and shorts in at the waist (a good reason to know how to sew!)
