Hello there!

Hello and welcome to my blog, Surviving on $25 a Week. My name is Carrie and I'll give you a run-down on how I survive on $25 a week, and maybe you can too. So before I get started, I want to let you know more about me, what I do, and what the $25 pertains to.

I am a stay-at-home wife, soon to be mother. My husband barely makes enough to pay the bills and get gas. After we pay those pesky bills and put gas money aside for the week, we have about $25 left over for food, household supplies, cleaning supplies, dog food, cat food, and whatever else we may need for the week.

Yes, it's only my husband and I living in the house, however $25 is still not enough! Especially with 4 cats, a pitbull, and a collie. But sometimes, you have to make it be enough, and I refused to let my animals go because of money issues. Sometimes you just have to grit your teeth and bare it. You have to make it happen.
