You guys. I did it! I stayed in my budget. Hallelujah. Okay, okay. We went a little over on groceries, but *overall* we were $37.56 in the black. Whew. Just made that. I’ll detail a post later on about how I budget in general (because that’s not really Airstream life specific) but just know that these…
We’ve updated a few accessories over the past few months, and it’s time to share some of the changes we’ve made. These are all items that we use regularly and love. All links are affiliate to Amazon (where we buy A LOT of stuff). You pay the same, but we get pennies for our Percy Jackson…
I’ve had to revamp the budget. AGAIN. I hate budgeting. What I was doing was just not working – see that “Bonus Item” category? That’s for everything that didn’t exactly fit int he budget (Rachel’s new bike, birthday presents, workout DVD’s, Amazon orders, etc). Notice how large it is? Yeah. That needs to stop. Lol….
August has been great! We spent the majority of our time along the coast between Willits, CA and Crescent City, CA. We then meandered into Oregon seeing the Oregon Caves National Monument, Medford & Ashland, Crater Lake and finally into our boondocking spot in Bend. Oregon has been great so far! I’ll detail a post…
Thanks so much for sharing this each month. It’s so interesting to see the differences and similarities in our Airstream expenses. You must have a knack for finding the most inexpensive laundromats ever. There are only two of us and I can’t get out of there for less than $25. Do you use your propane for everything (fridge, heat, hot water heater, cooking), even when you’re connected to shore power? We haven’t filled our propane since February, but we only use it for cooking, shore power for the rest.ReplyCancel
Absolutely! I’m glad its fun. 🙂 We do not use propane for everything. Typically we’ll switch the fridge over (or it does it automatically) and we have an electric heater. Hot water and cooking we don’t have a choice though. Those are always propane. We seem to need to fill one a month right now which is totally doable.ReplyCancel
With our remodel of the bedroom area in the Airstream also came a rearranging of storage space. Pre-remodel, the queen bed lifted up and there was a huge storage area underneath. Although it was great, some things were hard to get to, and part of the space was accessible only via the outdoor access panel….
[…] put off this post for months. I think every time I post a “How Much Does It Cost to Live in an Airstream” I mention that the numbers don’t include EVERYTHING, just what is unique to our particular […]
