Meaning the last weekend before the last week of summer vacation.

Our spending looks something like this:

Fri: $10 for admission to pool for BTS 7th Grade & Family aka Meet and Greet of the New Families

Sat: $32 dinner at Steak N Shake after dance competition in Milwaukee (kids eat free, used $1 off coupons x3 for DH and my meals and bogo on the shakes) Food $26.59 (not bad for seven) and $5 tip

Sun: $60 cash to Chicago White Sox game - my brother has seasons tickets and DH and the boys went. I sent them with two small well-stocked coolers (nachos and chips, soda, peanuts, cookies, candy bars) for the tail-gaiting portion and I bought all the boys/DH White Sox shirts and caps (at Marshalls on discount and we had two brand new caps from a few years back when my daughters danced and we walked the bases) Don't know how much of that will come home - I'm banking on nothing remaining.

$15 to see Eclipse for the girls + bffs and myself.

I have to laugh how fast we blew through the money - we usually swim for free at the Y on Fridays and watch DVDs from the library for our entertainment. On Saturdays we usually go to the kids' soccer games, etc. I think if we entertained ourselves like this all the time, we wouldn't enjoy it as much when we do these things!

Hope everyone enjoys their day!
