I got a Target Red Card

As a money-saving effort.

You get 5% off every purchase (and their stuff is usually cheaper than other stores anyway). Because there's a Target within walking distance from the office and I do most of my grocery shopping there, I decided it was a good "financial experiment" that I'd take on for a year. 

I promised myself that I'd pay it off every month (because groceries on a credit card is just too sad).

The first bill was... sobering, folks.

SO-BER-ING.

I cannot believe I hand that much money to Target each month.

I'll be spending the next couple of weeks in the Ramen aisle.
