GRRR!!!!!!!!!!!! Over again?! This is getting ridiculous! I mean...Seriously! LOL The only thing were going to need are fresh things and diapers for the rest of the month.

I love this feeling!

Theres a total of 300$ left on both of our credit cards! This will be paid off really soon, and I'm so excited! We paid off most of it with our tax refund which was great. They keep uping my limit on there after almost 3 years of having the card. It started at 700$ and now is up to 3,000$ which is bad....but it all happened within a few months.

So...Heres my March grocery budget....already over!:(

* I KNOW I'm going to go over this month, I still might need an extra can of formula towards the end of the month, and pick up a few items for lunches...blahhh. Next month my budget will be 270$* I have predicted myself to go over by 25 dollars this month. We've also added to our budget an extra 20$ or so for stockpiling when things have a great sale.
