Well its week #7 and the cat is looking well. Still there are more savings to be found in the weekly budget with a few new ideas
#30 - kids school photos, usually I buy the value pack but this year just the class photo (its not like we dont have a whole heap of photos of our kids!) Saves $22
#31 - MYO Pizza tonight - saves us about $40. It's the last futsal game tonight and we are going to MACCAS for an icecream - strictly icecream - simple, easy, fun, cheap!
#32 - We will have to wait to see if this is fully realised - but if Fraser wins the karate colouring in competition there is a months free training for a prize. That'll save us about $100 atm, so Fraser - get your pencils out. He is fully into this - as we have bribed him to enter the comp - normally we wouldnt worry about it !! I wont put this saving down unless it gets realised . . . .
#33 - bakery bipass, eggs sold and soft drinks not purchased, early pick up from childcare, spot in my ante natal class filled early - $88 or there abouts :)
#34 - bought something to replace something I lost, then I found it BEFORE losing the receipt, $6 back in the bank!
# 35 - staying at a friends over the weekend, up north, to save on accomodation costs - we have to go up for karate tournament for Fraser - I wont add the saving of around $150 because we are really looking forward to seeing them. I might cook up a dish to take so they dont suggest we go out for tea (that rarely costs us less than $100). Sneaky eh - I'm getting good at this!!
So, counting savings from points 30, 31, 33 and 34 - $156 + $904 (from the last 6 weeks)
Savings so far - over $1,000 - $1,060 to be exact!
