I made this as a New Year's Resolution so after this month I will be half way to doing a whole year resolution and while this is the best I have ever done at one, I am excited to think I might do one for the whole year! That would be something! My goal is to surpass my normal goal of 15 No Spend Days.

June 1-
$4.50 Kids bought lunch (We got in too late from vacation to grocery shop)
$1.08 Redbox
$20.00 Gas
$114.94 Groceries
$5 DD11's end of year class trip

May 2-$0
May 3-$0 Took the kids to 2 Walgreen's for Silly Bandz but that is all we got and they used their own money.

May 4- Was a $0 day till hubby came home with "free" baseball game tickets. I debated, but it was a beautiful night and free glove night for kids and the girls had friends going so we went. There went the $0 day. We spent just under $30on dinner and parking. I am quoting Suze Orman right now, "People first, then money, then things." It was a nice family evening out so worht losing the day.
