we spend about 400-500 a month, we have 4 kids and 4 pets..so it takes up some money...now on the off time(meaning when the kids are in school all the time) it can drop down to 300-400 which is what i love about school lol

Hey Dawn,
It costs a lot to feed our loved ones doesn't it, LOL
The furkids alone can eat us out of house & home
Why is it less when the kids are in school?
If it helps .. you're definitely not alone :)

oh yes the furbabies can eat up some food, and gotta have the treats too for when they are good ;)


when they are in school, they get to eat there and its free, so thats a plus...saves me giving them money for it, or making them lunch...this last summer i was doing almost 600 bucks, man that was rough..eating 3 times a day and then the snacks...blah,..i like it so much better when its just katelynn and me, then i have a chance at eating LOL

Hi Dawn,
Oh yes on the furkid treats for sure .. they love those!
Oh how cool the kids can get frewe at school.
I imagine that is a huge help .. lucky you all can do that.
Not all schools offer that.
Summer is a time for eating now isn't it, LOL
Look at all the money you save every school year
Bet you really do love that :)

Sure does add up Bunny,
Not too bad when you think all you're buying for
Maybe it will slowly but surely go down one day :)
