Budget Time

Our spending is a bit over the limit lately. We need to downsize the recent spending spree we have been on. Here is the survey I have recently set up for our family meeting tomorrow. I plan to sit with my husband (begrudgingly no doubt, as he cannot stand dealing with our finances) and prioritize our spending quite a bit. Will it be successful? I don't know. We will find out how much everyone really needs the things they want. It will at least give the kids some say in what stays and what goes away.
