Good Morning, Everyone! Here’s a look at our budget for the month of August. I budget per month and per paycheck. Here’s a look at the numbers!
1st half of the month: check $1,122.85
Giving $150 $972.85
Car Ins $41.68 $931.17
Health ins $135 $796.17
Credit Card $206 $590.17
Gas $100 $490.17
Food $250 $240.17
Chores for kids $20 $220.17
Misc/Other $220.00 $0.17
2nd half of the month: check $1,122.85
Giving $150 $972.85
Phone $50 $922.85
Electric $150 $715.85
Van Ins $43 $729.85
Prop Taxes $14 $715.85
House payment $215 $500.85
Gas $100 $400.85
Food $250 $150.85
Misc/Other $80 $70.85
Leftover amount combined from both checks = $71.02 for vehicle tire fund
The biggest difference in this month’s budget and our financial update I posted here is that we have a credit card payment in this and we don’t have extra budgeted for winter heat/A.C. in the summer. I increased our budgeted amount for electric to hopefully cover the difference in what our bill usually is and what it will be running the air conditioner.
I have another post coming about why there is a credit card amount in our bills right now even though I’m very much opposed to credit cards.
I think that’s it for now! Thanks for reading and following along with us!
Until next time …
