I have learned a bit recently and am incorporating my new lessons into my life. I’m actually quite excited about it.
Not only am I back to my grocery budget, as I never should have stopped, but we are budgeting the rest of our lives as well. I’m hoping this is easy as we each have an allowance that should be hard to exceed. It’s really just getting our eating out and grocery overspending under control. I think we can do it. Our long range goal is to go to Ireland for ten days (not including travel time). I have even made little stepping stones along the way as rewards once we reach a certain amount saved.
Now, with our new found goal in mind comes goals of saving even more money. Just because I have budgeted $250 per month for groceries doesn’t mean I have to spend all of that. The more I save, the more we save, and the closer we get to our end goal!
I am trying to go with the mantra “Every little bit helps” and it truly does.
How do you save money?
