@melissadeps: You’re about to watch me fail for the first time. 😩 We went over our grocery budget. We went over what was actually sitting in our expense account. It sucked. But messing up doesn’t mean you quit. I’m disappointed. I’m frustrated. And I definitely wish this grocery trip had gone differently… but one bad budget week (or one bad grocery haul) isn’t going to defeat me. We’re still paying off this debt. We’re still figuring it out. And we’re still going to keep going even when it doesn’t look perfect. ❤️ Thank you to @Alani Nutrition for at least giving me the energy to get this haul completed. #debtfreejourney #debtpayoff #Budgeting #moneysavingtips #momsonabudget
Isn’t it so disheartening to try so hard but yet it seems impossible? Ughhh!!!

Don't apologize for being crabby - your feelings are legitimate! Be proud that you have goals and were so close to meeting them, especially in a category of things that can fluctuate from day to day: gas & groceries.

Love how honest you are! This is why I have to shop online. I had to knock a few things off my Kroger delivery order yesterday to stay in a range I was more comfortable with.

Maybe reframe it and have it be an “adjustment” as opposed to a “fail”. And it’s ok to have a day. We went to Universal over the weekend and I went over budget too, but we will adjust. You got this!

Atleast your aware, keep moving ahead. As long as your are not charging to credit card it’s leaps ahead of what could have been or what use to be

I shop in bulk and since things last more than one a week, I have to do my grocery budget in two week or one month chunks so shopping in bulk works
