February Food Challenge- Week 1 Recap Saturday, February 7, 2009

Week 1 of the February Food Challenge is finally over. I spent a total of $47.96 on dining out over the past week. I guess I spent most of time eating out with my colleagues at work, despite taking food from home. Now I did not waste what I packed, since I would have it at dinner instead.

I need to keep my dining out budget for dinners and not waste my packed lunches. The best part of this exercise is that it will help me budget better. It will help me decide if $150 is enough or if I can even stay within the amount I alloted.

I have already used 31.9% of the $150. Lets see how I do during week 2.
