It's payday and I have my budget planned. I get paid every other Friday and my husband gets paid on the 15th and 30th of every month. I plan my budget around my paycheck. My husband has always just put a set amount of money into the account and kept cash for spending during the week. I used google docs to create a spreadsheet of my budget, I like that since I created it in google I can access it from home and work.
This 2 weeks budget includes:
Groceries: $150.00 (includes food & other necessities, such as toiletries)
Fuel: $75.00
Church: $120.00
Daycare: $272.00 (every 2 weeks)
Dance Class: $30 (monthly)
Trash: $48 (quarterly)
Verizon: $120
Home Improvement: $30 (ING Direct Savings Account)
Health Insurance: $233.00
Mortgage: $554.00
Property Tax: $100.00 (ING Direct Savings Account, for auto and house property taxes)
Gas: $115.00
If I stay on budget and planned correctly from the previous pay period I should be able to use the rent check that will be coming the beginning of April to make an extra car payment.
