February Financial Wrap Up

February just blew by! It was supposed to be a low spend month for us but here are my totals:

Food: 331
Gas: 151
Vehicles: 0
Medical: 462
Cats: 281
Gifts: 0
Clothes: 96
Misc Things/Other: 683

It was an ok month for us. Medical expenses were high because I paid off an emergency room visit co-pay from the fall and hubby went to the dentist. Miscellaneous was high because I had to register for a conference (220) and pay part of my fees to the university (250). Oh and cats was so high because we adopted a new baby, Cally, and took her to the vet!

Here are my January totals for comparison:

Food: 530
Gas: 114
Vehicles: 177
Medical: 62
Cats: 40
Gifts: 44
Clothes: 82
Misc Things/Other: 792

Miscellaneous was high in January because of a Playstation 3 that happened to be at the Circuit City going out of business sale. Now since I don't play PS3's I wonder who bought that? Hubby did sell his PS2 on ebay, so in reality it wasn't that bad I suppose.

My March goals is to be under $300 for food, closer to $250 if possible. Miscellaneous will be high next month because I have to purchase plane tickets for two conferences coming up. I also have to pay the University the rest of my fees. Tomorrow is another fresh start....
