Saturday Savings 1/19/13

So, I decided to bring back my Saturday Savings posts. My goal is to use them to keep better track of my spending throughout the year. Last year I kept every receipt, from every store, but that has become a nightmare to keep track of. So this is my solution. Blog about it, then throw the receipt away.

As I mentioned in my last post, I made a goal to eat better in 2013. I plan to do this while still sticking to a budget. However, the cost of the healthy food far exceeds the cost of the junk so my budget will be a little higher this year than last (I managed to stay at $50 per week for 2012).

So here are this weeks totals....
