I had to buy lunch today.
It's been a very hectic week and yesterday was my longest day--I simply don't have portable food in the house, so I will be buying lunch today. Worse, I am having dinner with a friend tonight, so I'll be buying dinner too.
And I was doing so well!
Combined, Peanut and I have spent $300 less this month compared to the same time last month. That kind of progress is hard to give up by buying meals! But I'm remind myself that, hey--I've spent nearly $200 less this month so far, I can afford to get a cheap (less than $5) lunch and a reasonable (less than $20 dinner) today. I don't want to use the excuse to go crazy the rest of the month, but for today, I'm not going to beat myself up over it.
Wow, that's quite an accomplishment! $300 less on food in one month is quite a feat.
