Posted by LuLuGal | October 29, 2008 .

Welcome to How I Save Money and tracking of income and expenses for the month.

Income for the month to date: $302.42

Expenses for the month to date: $2557.86

Net effect: -$2255.44

We get paid on Friday so I am eagerly looking forward to this date.  So far I am just barely under the budget this month and I have no idea what happened.

I guess I made some extra payments and spent all of the fun money so I am quite close to zero.

Next month should go better since I implemented my zero based budget and my electricity bill is going to be much lower.

I will see you guys and gals later as I continue my journey to save money and become debt free!!!!

    Thanks for sharing all your great tips! I’ve been couponing/bargain shopping for years, but never budgeted – I started in October and it is SCARY! At least November is right around the corner! Thanks so much! You motivated me!

    I think I am becoming a CVS junkie myself. :-)
    It is good that you started budgeting because it really is a wake up call.

    Hopefully November will run smoother since you will have October to compare it too. Thanks for dropping by and please sign up to my rss feed and come back again.
