Only 32 percent of Americans prepare a monthly budget, according to a Gallup poll taken in June 2013. The first thing you should determine when making a financial plan is your goals. Most people want to get out of debt, while others want to save for their children’s college educations or a new home. Create Milestones.

The Goal of the Grocery Budget Challenge is to be creative with our meal planning and grocery shopping so that we do not over-spend. We have some upcoming expenses that will be taking a bite out of our savings accounts this fall, so I will be more committed with our grocery budget. May & June Meeting. March Meeting.

Starting January 2012, we set up an automatic withdraw to a new “vacation savings account” of $25 a week. In years past, my goal each year was to pay for our trips entirely with ”free” money! I haven’t cashed out since June of 2011 woohoo!

That changed on Saturday, June 25, 2017 when one of my children started complaining. We hit our Annual Household Portion (think: deductible) in June, so all of the medical bills after that point were paid by other members’ shares. Our main financial goal for 2018 is to save $10k for our Annual Household Portion with Medi-Share.
