Groceries spending win!

While I've had a few falls in my quest for a spending fast, I have succeeded in one area this month! My food budget for groceries.

To start the year I allocated $225 for groceries. I hope to be lower than that, but my average spending last year was somewhere around $300 or so.

On this 4th Sunday of the month with only 9 more days to go (and a birthday dinner I promised to cook my dad next Saturday) I've only spent $121 on groceries! I'm about to go out and get provisions for the 9 days ahead, which are going to be pretty slim this week, and then later this week I need to get supplies to cook my dad a rocking dinner on Saturday. I think I can mark that as a win in the spending fast column!
