Starting to shrink back all our spending. I wasn't able to track our purchases in January due to me loosing a week of receipts due to having a baby. So I wanted to see what we spent our money on in February and where I can cut back. Our nessecities, food only, was $427. 65. That is with $254 worth of food stamps. So I spent $173. 65. I separated snacks. I spent $62. 75 there. On household it was $59. 89. Diapers and tolietries was $48. 65. Eating out $180. 94. A lot of the eating out was this weekend when I had emergency surgery on Friday. That was our spending for February outside of gas which for both vehicles was $65. We are behind a jeep payment and internet and trying to catch up due to hubby missing work from the baby and now the surgery. That total late is 535 + 82 total $617. We are topside on the jeep so we cannot get rid of it and since it's our only vehicle that fits the kids. Hubby has a work truck that isn't worth anything. Our bills as of right now are: Water due on the 1st $35 Phones due on the 12 $112 Electric due on the 14 $160 Loan 1 due on the 16 $131 payoff $2647 Vehicle insurance due on the 18th $200 Internet due on the 23rd $83 Jeep due on the 25 $535 Rent is going up from 692 to 716 the 1st of April. We are also having another loan that was suppose to be a one time payoff go into payments at the beginning of April cost $135 per month payoff is $2500. Any ideas? The jeep can't go, we had another car loan that got stuck in with it. I can't work at this point and hubby is currently gone a week at a time so no chance at another job. The income is $2200. Hubby is trying to work on Saturdays to bring in an extra $100 a week but it depends on the work available.
