It is time again to check up on my finances and see how well I am sticking to my monthly budget. This week I received $11.97 from Lending Club from loans that were repaid.

I spent $29.49 on food this week which has pushed me slightly over the food budget for the month. I should be able to make it to the end of the month without spending any more money on food so that should not be a big problem. I don’t even know why I spent money on food because I had things in the cupboards and in the fridge that I could have eaten.

Next month when I begin my continuous rolling budget I need to make sure that I only buy food when I need it and not when I just want something. I always have food left over from month to month because I am just buying random things..so I need to make a plan and stick to it.
