It's surprising how hard it is to get used to that one ;) Because I have some wiggle room in my budget I watch for things that are getting low (laundry detergent, potatoes, flour, shampoo) and hope to get them on sale before I'm in the "gotta have it" situation. I find I just can't drag my two kids to any extra stores because we only shop once a week and we have a bit of a drive--they just get too tired, as do I! You are doing great sticking to your budget--it's quite an undertaking and I am learning a lot from you!sevenoverbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06364781187875610954noreply@blogger.com
