This week was one where I really didn't want to stick to my list or budget. If it hadn't been for the grocery clerk in the store, I wouldn't have. He saw me looking at the screen of how much I spent and asked if I wanted to take something off. I told him that I was concerned I was going to go over my budget. He said that he knows what it is like to be on a budget and helped me to make it work out. So, thanks to him I stayed in my budget again. I bought the following:
Garbanzo beans 3 at 69 cents each
Chicken broth 2 at 1.06 each
