The budget was $3,000
My total came in at
$1256.16
-$152.76 for Mail In Rebates
Total Spent for budget of 2010
$1103.40
My Total Coupon Savings for 2010
$2759.75
That is almost 1/2 of what i allowed. I feel happy with that goal.
How did the budget compare to 2009 ?
In 2009 i spent $2165.16 Which is $1061.76 less this year than 2009. That's Great!
I saved $3747.31 in 2009
I saved more in 2009 the difference of $987.56
I did not save as much this year though as i did in 2009. We had some life changes thrown at us with our dental work, hubby's hours cut means less $, and our house taxes keep going sky high and car repairs.
My Goals for 2011
- Shopping More Spending less
- More time w/ family
- Cooking more at home
- Try to be more open minded
That i am going to set the New annual budget for $3,000
If i come in under it GREAT if i don't well then that means i did something wrong.
What are your goals for 2011
