EF update etc

August 5th, 2016 at 09:15 am

EF:
144.61
+_9.50
________
154.11

Holiday Fund remains the same: 40.00

New Balance: 194.11

Things are a bit tight this month. Hubby and I are making sure to use up everything we have. It'll be cheap meals until payday in a couple of weeks.

My cousin is hoping to get married this year, so I'll need to budget for that. The kids aren't in the wedding but I'll still need to make sure that they look good. I don't even know how much kids formal outfits are so I'll need to research that.

Loan payment is due out next week. I'm so excited for it to be under 7k.

I still keep getting letters from the catalogue company, so my account must not be closed.

    I don't know how fancy you would have to dress the kids. Wouldn't a cute dress for your girl and a collared shirt for your son do? If not, are there resale stores for kids clothes?
    Good luck with everything!

    I agree with Carol and hope you'll look at what's available at a children's consignment shop and Thrift. These garments are needed so rarely it's not practical to spend a lot.

    I'm chiming in with the others. Thrift shops are teeming with adorable dress clothes for children, because they are usually only worn once and then given away. Check them out!
