None of the above choices .They wanted to see where they can cut spending .They had less money than they thought .They were out of money and needed to budget again .
Why were the reviewing their current budget ?
When my husband and I combined finances after getting married , we discovered that we were spending an absurd amount on groceries and dining out . But oddly , when we compared across months , we noticed that we were spending roughly the same amount per trip to the grocery store or food joint , and less trips equaled less spent overall . So we came to the solution of budgeting our trips out , rather than budgeting our dollars , with the aid of a simple homemade visual cue . We were buying groceries or meals 40 ( ! ) times per month , so we set our goal to cut that number in half .
