July 2011 Savings Review

This post may contain affiliate links.

The household budget for our family is $500 a month and includes all groceries, household products, diapers, health and beauty, clothing, gifts, decorations and newspapers.
A little on the lean side? Perhaps, but it works for our family.
Whether your number is $300 or $1000, you should do what works for your
family.

In July:
I spent: $396.84
I saved:  601.15
Extra money I made: $97.79
Total impact to my family in April: $896.08 of Hubby’s salary saved!

This puts me at 45% of my 2011 goal to save $17,000.
