I put it on my iTouch after you posted about it and it is really helping me stay on track. It definitely keeps my budget in my mind and close by so I can check my spending.<BR/><BR/>I understand what a previous poster means about preschool, but for us also it is a mandatory expense. By that I mean that we definitely make it a priority and because it's a fixed amount we include it in our budget with things like our mortgage and car payment. It is not considered flexible spending to us.1hottiredmamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10563415546939063903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2830639381888512406.post-6295947252564259842008-10-02T05:57:00.000-07:002008-10-02T05:57:00.000-07:00So glad you are doing this again!

I've bought it twice there in the past 4 months and it was cause I was trying to save myself a trip to the grocery store, but in the end I'd need to go to the grocery store a day or two later and I would have saved on the milk.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2830639381888512406.post-85452000183661768152008-10-01T13:45:00.000-07:002008-10-01T13:45:00.000-07:00First off, I love that you put booze as the first ...First off, I love that you put booze as the first item in your discretionary budget!

It makes me feel better to know we're not alone. <BR/><BR/>We buy different things than you, but the end result is the same. It just takes a small fortune to keep my boys fed. I shudder to think how much they're going to eat 10 years from now when they're teenagers. <BR/><BR/>I spend over $50 a week on fresh fruits and veggies (the cheapest I can find!) just for snacks. I still always have to convince the boys that raisins are edible on the last day of the week after they've eaten everything else. It's so hard to keep food in our house, but I don't really want to replace the healthy whole foods with cheaper processed stuff.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2830639381888512406.post-78060948428816453872008-10-01T11:46:00.000-07:002008-10-01T11:46:00.000-07:00Yea!

There is usually one week a month I can skip the big trip and just buy milk/produce/bread when I have enough meat and staples on hand.<BR/><BR/>So glad you put this back...always interesting to peek over someone else's shoulders!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
