Ok so I am closing out the month. You can see the following Charts... Each day when I get home, I enter my totals into my spreadsheet. I also keep all of my reciepts in a box just incase a rebate comes up for something I just bought! The budget is $400.00 a month. I am just over with $433.35, its ok though I am able to add $26.94 in cash rebates that I recieved so I am only over $6.41 :) I tried so hard to cash out my rewards today, my boys would not behave so I have $8 in Rewards to Wags.. (LOL to compalin about having Money!!) So im not really Over, Im under if you figure them in!
To find out my % saved
2168.54 (retail)-406.41(cash oop) = 1762.13 then divide by retail (2168.54) = 81% SAVINGS!!
Where I spent the money...
Aldis was the bank breaker!! I love that store for groceries.. ($1.19 whole wheat bread, .39lb banannas)
Walgreens was the highest payoff for me..
And to see my coupon usage break down by store
