Overdid it?

I just got home from Target. I did a cashier shift last night and saw some good deals on items in the grocery department. I went back today and spent the rest of my grocery budget.

I've spent $272.40 on groceries so far this month, and $65 on dining out. I think I can keep the total grocery budget this month under $300. Remember I went to Aldi and stocked up too, but today's deals have my freezer is super dooper stuffed.
