One of the biggest problems Corey and I have financially is going to stores like Walmart 3 times a week. There is always something we need but we always end up getting "extra" things we don't need, spending extra money that we don't need to spend. So today I sat down, with my cookbooks and planned out 5 meals for the week. We went to Walmart tonight and bought all the groceries for the week. Yes, the bill was larger than normal but we shouldn't have to go and buy more things during the week and should end the end actually spend less money. Plus I bought some spices and things I normally don't buy so it added a little more to the bill. So I'll let you know how it goes. We have more than enough food in the house. Corey's grandma really stocked us up on canned food so I mean if we needed we could survive two weeks but we won't push it! Also, my weight watchers round 2 is going well.

Yeah! Setting up a meal plan and a budget of sorts. So what is round two exactly?
A Weekly Menu is always helpful. Also going to a cash system works great too. That way you only have so much to spend. Check out www.daveramsey.com for some really good life changing info when it comes to money. It works for us and many of times saved our lives. I am sure you two will do fine. God is bigger! Best to luck.
