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.

If you’ve been following my progress trackers on the right side bar you know that we’re getting close to paying off our van loan.

Thank you for stopping by!
How exciting to be so close to the Van pay off. Getting those payoff figures is always a highlight.
