So, how am I doing? Not bad really. Spouse has traveled a bit, which helps. I've been sick, which doesn't. My pantry is slowly emptying. The CSA, of course, is awesome. And the local produce market has had organic pink lady apples on sale for $0.99 to 1.39/lb (yay!!) Plus I've been getting free fruit - avos and oranges from my boss, oranges from my friend Sara, and eggs (not a fruit, I know) from my friend Kelly.
Week 1 (1/8/11 - 1/14/11): $35.84
Week 2 (1/15/11 - 1/21/11): $34.83
Week 3 (1/22/11 - 1/28/11): $34.68
I seem to be pretty consistent. So my "overflow" bucket has $45 in it so far. I'll use this when I need it.
Just goes to show that cash is king. I really do spend less when I spend cash.

Since using cash I've never looked back with my budgeting.
