Ok I go into Publix today to pick up a few things. So I hand the cashier my coupon for $.35 which I thought she did not take off in which I am staring at the screen. When I cash out and get my receipt I am looking for the discount, of course there isn't one. So I say to her did you take the coupon off (while she is staring at me) she says no and hand it to me, I say to her were you planning on telling me or keeping staring wondering if I noctice? I was so upset then I go to the desk and the girl is starin at me as if to say it is only $.35. First of all if the first cashier had applied my discount, by doing her job I would not have been at the customer srvice desk. Boy was I mad

Went to the grocery store and I did not have a list so I ended up spending more than anticipated ($36.97). But I am making a big dinner which should last me until about Wednesday. Today's menu: roasted chicken with yams, blackeyed peas and rice, corn bread and my favorite homestyle potatoe salad...oops I forgot about the stuffing. I was just in the mood for cooking. Needless to say thayt's today's big lunch as well as dinner for the next couple of days.

I tried Zatarran's Blacken Chick mix, which was terrible. It comes in a small bag that you place in the microwave for about a minute...it was definately not worth the $1.99

You remeber that cc that I paid off before the end of my billing cycle...well they hit me with $25.00 interest. Is this legal? I paid the card off before the next billing cyle...I am red hot right now
are there any recourse, I did close this account because the interest was way too high. Now instead of my lovely blance of $758.68 it's now $781.68...crooks

Prior to coming to work I had to hit Publix which cost me more than it would have, had I gone to Walmart; but that place drives me crzy. Any way I spent $44.47 here is where it all went:
1.20 sales tax
1.25 for a news paper
$9.90 for disposable utensil and container because after what I saw at work on Friday I will not be using anything in that kitchen
$32.12 on groceries
I was able to save $.75 with my coupon so that was a plus

I bought some hamburger helper for the first time (taco) but I did not care for it. So since i spent almost two dollars I guess I have to gobble it up. Some tims thoough, if you let food sit over night it tends to taste better the next day, we'll see.

I can not be lieve it is Jluy already. My goal for this month is to continue decreasing my CC debt and pay off CC 2 this month,the blance is $871.00. CC 2 the plans is to get it down to about $1500.00 from $1900.00 goal is to pay off by September. I also need to work on my grocery bill, I was bale to decrease it from $140.68 (40%) from the month before now to increasing this month ( June) by 21% to $170.33 Dinining out for May was 173.74 increased by 34%. Now ending in June I decreased my eating out by 47% to $91.80,. So even though I did really well with dining out the grocery bill went up. I decided to print a calendar for the month with what's for dinner on it for the month ans stick to that grocery bill I should save big time that way. We will see

Well I spoke too soon the money my brother left was not to pay me back but he wanted me to pay his cc bill, can you believe that. He use to be really good at paying you back but now he is just taking his sweet little time and the kicker is he's planning a trip to Key West. But he says he'll psy me on Monday or tuesday and his bill isnow due until the end of the week so I am waiting to see if he pays me or not before I deduct the money for his cc ( I will pay it on time )
Today was another huge spend day
$2.99 Hurricane Supplies
$14.80 Groceries
$2.98 Household supplies
$.56 Sales Tax
$58.48 Dad' Meds
Total : $79.81
Transfered $1.15 to challenge giving me a new total of $139.39
