No Spending Month Update - Week Two

I am starting to feel the pinch in my no spending month. My son’s birthday is winding up costing more than I thought, and I still need to buy a Father’s Day gift. I am, however, determined not to exceed $500 for the month, even if it means we don’t spend anything for a week.

Here is what we spent in week two:

6/8
$11 lunch out. We were running several errands which took longer than we thought, so we grabbed a bite. I am beginning to notice a pattern here as we also did this last week. Maybe we need to start packing more snacks in the car.

6/9
$0

6/10
$19 dinner out. (You can read about our less than satisfactory experience here.)
$20 DH’s transportation card

6/11
$8 DH’s beer

6/12
$57 groceries

6/13
$0

6/14
$0

Total = $115
Total spent for the month = $249
