How much do you set aside weekly/monthly for everyday expenses?
Bill aside of course. After everything is paid for, how much do you usually have for groceries, gas, and general things? This may be more towards people following either Dave Ramsey, or an “envelope” budget. I try to set aside either $200 weekly or $400 biweekly, and whatever is left over after that amount plus bills goes into savings or towards debt. Sometimes I think it’s too much or too little, but that’s the general number that’s worked for us. I spend about $50 weekly on groceries for a family of 4, and once a month do a “bulk trip” that’s an extra $100. We usually only eat out once weekly. Just looking for more ways to save money before baby comes! I try to maximize our money as best I can but sometimes feel like I don’t do a great job.
