Notes: I went over my target $100 for groceries by a few dollars, but I stocked up on frozen veggies and bread. My grocery store had my favorite frozen veggies on sale for $1 a bag with a limit of 10, so I bought 10 (these are usually $1.50 a bag so good savings), and Aldi had whole wheat bread (store brand) on sale for $1.09 so I bought 2 and froze them. 

 

My mobile phone bill is a bit lower this month because i was charged for an add-on I didn't want and there was a refund. Next month's bill will reflect the accurate amount going forward.

 

I'm happy I was able to sweep even just a little bit toward savings.

    It's always nice to put a little in savings.

    Good deal on the stock ups of veggies and bread!
