- Bills - $2220 covers everything from out mortgage and car payments to our gym membership. It's all the bills we get every month except for credit card bills.
- Gas - $200 total for both cars, but if we go over, we go over.
- Groceries - $200 I didn't realize how hard this would be. To ease the pain I've started shopping mostly at Save-A-Lot, supplemented by Shop 'N' Save for the things I can't find.
- Pet Food - $60 covers 2 dogs and 1 cat for at least a month - I won't settle for anything cheaper than Purina One, though I used to feed only Natural Choice until their prices jumped nearly $10.
- Savings - $433 is an average for the auto transfer that happens between our checking & savings accounts every 2 weeks.
- Fun - $100 each for my husband and I. This counts going out to eat, shopping and beer, wine and liqueur.
