Notes: My utilities saw an increase, and I wasn't using more. Gas for the car was also higher. I'm happy with my grocery spending and hope to continue to keep this down as much as possible to offset other increases that I noted. I'm also trying to decrease take out and had zero this month! Now that football season is over this will be easier.
