October Goals

Looking back I did so so on my September Goals. I am getting into the groove of both being back at work and keeping at this debt project of mine so hopefully things go better for October. A couple are absolutely reruns as I didn't do a complete job last time.

Here is my plan for October:

• Completely pay off balance on Mastercard
• Plan out how long (given nothing OMG happens in my life) it will take to max out the small emergency fund and paying off Bank of Mom
• Document expenditures in detail for the following categories: my allowance, groceries, household and dining out.
• Investigate comparative costs for 10 frequently purchased grocery items to see where they should be purchased.
• Preplan menus to allow for larger, more infrequent shopping trips and reduce impulse grocery buying.
• Track how many no spend days I can achieve. (particularily effective for groceries)

Bring on October!!
