I did a big shop with week with the husband along to help out. I needed to pick up church supplies so I needed a second person to push a shopping cart. He added a few things to our cart that I would not have bought. Still the damage was not too bad and the overage can be spread out over the next two week. Also I had not done a Big Shop since the week before Thanksgiving.
Harvey's - $17.68
Pickles (B1G1)
Mayonnaise (B1G1)
Toilet paper
CVS - $2.24
Washcloths (Operation Christmas Child)
Chips (DH's impulse purchase)
Bath pouf/sponge
Wal-Mart - $100.53
I will not list everything here. A good potion was items for Warren's lunches at work. For future meals I bought canned crab, tuna, and frozen shrimp poppers. I had coupons for some items that needed to be used. Those included herbal tea, coffee creamer, and chocolate milk powder. I should be able to wait six weeks before my next big shop.
I went about $40 over budget this week. I will spread that out over the next two weeks. Sometimes the budget requires some juggling. As long as it works out in the end, then I am happy.
