MickeyMomofThree, I hope your foot heals quickly!
Annsteere, I don't count DH's spending either. He often buys lunch out. I do count the money he spends on household things, but not for his car or "projects" unless something concrete (like a shelf or a bench) comes out of it.
The latest:
11/1: $42 for last week's after school care, $? for the PO (been avoiding that trip for almost 3 weeks, so I don't really want to know, but I suppose I'll have to ask later), $62 on clothes, and $140 for indoor soccer registration for the boys (ouch, but I was able to get the late fee waived because I didn't even know this place had indoor soccer until Sat., and the deadline was of course Fri.! That was really nice of them.) Starting off with a huge day!
11/2: $30 for the school fundraiser (beautiful wreath though!), $32 for gas, ? for grinders but DH picked them up so I'll have to ask.
11/3: $14 at the book fair
11/4:
11/5: $10 groceries, $12 skate night (PTO fundraiser), and $35 for after school care.
11/6: $130 on haircuts for me and the boys (I've got a lovely new shade of dark brown hair now!
), $35 at Target, and $20 gas. I also returned about $50 to Lands' End.
Groceries tomorrow.
no buy days: 1/10
dinners out: 1/5

But I do need to be comfy walking in Disney for sure! 
Anyone who knows me knows I have to start the month with one or I don't do well for some reason. So, I made do with groceries today and made it a November 1st No Spend Day!
BUT, here is the explination. I bought almost $200 in Gift Cards, $110 for Disney and $85 for Outback (where DH and I always go for dates, it's our favorite!) AND, they only sometimes have the different flavor of water that we drink. We were never until about 6 months ago bottled water people, but DH started drinking the flavored water insted of soda, not a savings but better for him. Well the kids started drinking it and I like that they will cause none of them were ever water drinkers so I caved and have been buying a case a week since. Well they have 2 packs of flavors and they like both but one more then the other and Sam's only has it about once every other month so when I went yesterday and saw they had it, I bought 5 cases. So that is $50 in water and $10 in deposit on the bottles. Add to that that I need to get my freezer stocked with dinners before we go on vacation so I bought a lot of meat and Ziplocks and yo uget a very high Sam's bill! 
No $pend day # 1 - 11-01-10
