    Just filled my envelopes for this month:

    Grocery $100. (we already spent $50 from a side job so i can reduce my envelope amt.)

    Gasoline $260.

    Household $20

    Dining $40

    Misc $20.

    Our livestock feed is being paid this month by egg, cheese, and chicken sales. I hope to sell a couple young goats too. We are not eating out very much, and I have inventoried the pantry and freezer for meals for 5 paydays so either the 5th paycheck will payback our savings or help pay for the Passports for dh and ds.

    Now to look over my traditional budget and get back to you...

    is the $100 for the whole month because you have enough food in stock for the month?    if so that is great.

    the trouble with semi monthly paycheques...no extras!
