Okay so here are the last 3 Wal Mart receipts...On the most recent on (2/27 middle receipt) the foods we planned for this week are...pumpkin pancakes, oatmeal and cereal for breakfast: grilled cheese, sandwiches, blts for lunch: beef burgers, tacos, spaghetti, chicken breast w/ potatoes for dinner. Keep in mind we have a year stock on ground deer, deer bacon and deer steaks because Ryan went hunting. We also have foods that we don't need to buy every week, like pancake mix, cereal and bread. But this will give you an idea of how we shop. Remember: $50 on food and $25 on household. We ventured to Wal Mart as a family and I grab items off our list and Ryan adds them up on the cell phone...so we know exactly where we are at.
things we did this week to save even more money:
2% milk was on sale for 20 cents cheaper than skim...so we bought 2% instead
I normally get 6 Yoplait yogurts for 50 cents a piece, but to save I got the great value 32 oz container for $1.98.
I am on a sodium restricted diet, so I eat a lot of yogurt, vegetables and salads
We did splurge and got Riley a Cars puzzle for $4, but it's worth the sacrifice and we still came in budget @ $74.05 for the weeks.
