After 9 yrs of participating in these types of threads, I can agree that a lot of us don't appreciate being castigated for what we spend and therefore will no longer give a complete budget. Most of these degenerate into a "I'm more virtuous because we spend less than you do" race to the bottom.
If I choose to spend $20+ for good wine, how does that help someone who doesn't know or care about the difference between Petite Syrah, Zinfanndel, & Pinot Noir? What will matter are what we average for RV park costs and what strategies we use to keep the cost down; or how we get our mail & what that costs us, or how using loyalty cards at grocery stores helps lower our costs for fuel for our toad, etc. and I offered the OP some of these but that wasn't enough.
