This week I did another Costco trip. This one had TP, bread for the freezer, half and half, and other staples. It came to a little over $200. I had $130 cash and then put the rest on the debit card. When I do that then I take that amount off my food $. I still need to do another cash run so I’ll figure out what I have left in the budget. I did buy B his Sierra Nevada beer even though he’s not really drinking much. But he gives me the money back for that.
I also went into Winco for salad stuff and that ended up under $30.
All the bills for September are in and accounted for. Our Allstate insurance notice came and again prices are crazy. My son’s Subaru is on our policy( he pays for this though), and it’s a 2008 and almost $700. Why?? I will pay when the actual bill comes in but I think I’m going to pay in installments. I really don’t want to add to the CC.
It’s been hot as I mentioned but it cools off at night with all the windows open.
Today is a no walk day so I’m doing some extra chores. The biggest is the outside windows. I also processed more tomatoes for the freezer and will do all of them(3 bags) later this fall.
I stuck to my menu plan this week except tonight is pizza night and I don’t think that’s what I’m doing. First, I don’t have any dough made, and second, no one feels like a pizza in this heat. I’ll figure something out.
I be doing everything I can to live cheap.
Yes, we need to be as frugal as possible.
Auto insurance increases have been dramatic this last year or so haven’t they. I’m with you on the heat. I was going to make chili for tonight but it isn’t going to happen since I didn’t do it in the morning when it was cooler.
Thankfully the heat should be over soon!
