Good advice I was halfway expecting him to say not to do it at all, but the cost is pretty low (500 for what’s going to be a nice station cooked meal if my friend’s firefighting husband is to be believed) and is also a form of entertainment/relaxation as you bond with and spend time with coworkers, especially as it’s a new station and all At my work we do something similar, but I did opt out because it’s a potluck, and I was routinely spending 15-20 dollars prepping meals or sides for 30+ people and too many weren’t contributing but filling their plates until the food ran out 🙄 Wish we had a system like this instead Someone suggested it, but it was quickly shot down by others

Comment from : A Miller

Comment from : Markus Ionescu

I don’t understand why food would have to be budgeted if your not eating out, or even utilities, it’s not like if someone goes over budget they will start missing meals or turn the power off to the house

I agree with splitting it between the grocery and personal but more important what a wonderful couple they have the great ability to communicate and work together as a team

Comment from : Chris Baker

Spend $20 per day on food 365 days in a year equals $7300 on food per year Can you spend less try tracking it
Comment from : Dipsomaniac

Ah the awkward group lunch thing encouraged by management that never comes and never has to worry about paying the light bill or being cool with the crowdalways hated it

Comment from : Foxideart

$300 monthly food budget, either food is cheap there or they eat very little meat
Comment from : Ryan Smith

I have found that people are at one extreme or the other when it comes to meals at work They either eat out ALL the time at work or absolutely NEVER The ones who eat out all the time may have money to burn, or they just may not have any sense at all The ones who absolutely NEVER, eat out at work under any circumstances whatsoever are usually not as broke as they think they are, and treating themselves to a meal with co-workers every once in awhile is NOT going to utterly destroy them And they would be shocked to see that it isn't really saving them as much money as they think What is wrong with a little balance? I brown bag it 4 out of 5 days every week And I eat out one time per week, and that is on Fridays And it is rarely ever a nice restaurant It's usually Taco Bell, Wendy's, Burger King, the grocery store deli, etc Yet, I have people tell me that I am stupid for eating out once a week "Throwing money away" they say Well, as far as I can tell, I am not just filthy stinking rich, but I'm not exactly hurting either
Comment from : Monte Carlo

Dang my husband is a firefighter and i wish his part to it was only 600 a shift It's more like 15-20 a shift Lol it's more than our family grocery budget of 4 and one on the way They like to eat well I guess

Comment from : ARIEL GOLD

This is my biggest weakness I have a horrible habit of eating out on lunch It's getting better but boy oh boy It's hard
Comment from : mzgemini0006

You will not sell anything when you eat with co-workers all year around since they happen to sell same thing as you do :)
Comment from : SaigonVN888

Aww I think it’s super sweet that they’re both arguing against their personal self-interests

$5 for dinner is a good deal I could spend more than that eatting at home
Comment from : Chris Baker

I thought I was the only one with a spending budget of less than $100
Comment from : Gigi

How about he pitch in just 5 days out of the 10? So 5 days he'll bring his own food, the other 5 he'll eat with his buddies That would only require $25 a month from his $300 budget
Comment from : Best Ly

Is it weird that I'd rather eat by myself?
Comment from : Brantley

I am slightly confused by all the comments saying $75 a month on personal spending is amazing That feels a little high to me What do people even spend that on? I think the guy was fine with taking it out of the spending money because he probably doesn't use it for much of anything besides going out to eat or the occasional random thing $25 a month is probably sufficient for many people Good job cutting all that debt!
Comment from : Helius Infinitus

$300 per month? Wow My wife spends about $800 per month on groceries and household items (soaps, paper towels, toilet paper, etc) It’s just me, the wife, and two young girls She makes a list and only buys only what’s on the list We don’t eat out either What are we doing wrong?
Comment from : Ben B

The man is willing to spend 2/3rds of his monthly spending allotment, in order to leave the grocery budget unaffected for his bride and she doesn't agree?brTalk about both husband and wife loving eachother to where they're both willing to sacrifice for the other persons sake That's awesome, great job you guys!
Comment from : RCFlyBoy314

Spending $7-8 per day on food for one person is plenty Lower the monthly food budget, like Dave said, and I’d actually shoot for $250/mo Don’t eat out!
Comment from : Ed Herrera

I always hated when peers at work all want to do a lunch thing, I would inform your peers you are on a budget for your future Some say this is the cost of living, it should be done to move up, but I think peers at work come and go, your families well-being should be the biggest priority
Comment from : Chris Does What With Danielle

wow i budget 2500 a month for my personal expensive like food and cloths i can't imaging to live like that 300 dollars for food budget this guy probably have lot of debts anyway keep it up pay off all your debt
Comment from : 怀疑人生

Comment from : Luisa McGill

How inspiring; only $75 a month to spend on himself
Comment from : Liko ET

$75 spending budget per month, did you hear that folks? $75! Now that is something to admire, how many Americans possess that type of fiscal responsibility? Admirable, especially considering the amount firefighters earn
Comment from : R101

That's strange I came by this I'm a firefighter for Atlanta fire department Wonder if I know this person
Comment from : 6ixSpeedStang18

My wife and I got in to a discussion about Girl Scout Cookies I mean after all it is food right? The end of the discussion we had a new category in our budget called fund raising It is specifically for all those fund raising events the kids come home with
