It's that time again! Supermarket Saturday! This week's menu is going to be a little different because Tuesday is my birthday, so my parents will be taking us out to dinner, so I don't have to plan a meal for that night, and also don't have to include it in our eating out budget.
Once again, we managed to stick to our $100.00/week food budget this last week! The total amount of money left over was $1.27. Man, we really cut it close, but we made it! :) So....without further ado....here is next weeks menu!

I should really do my menu's again. :) I usually go through my cookbooks see what looks good, buy the ingredients I don't already have, then cook it when I feel like it. :) I'm going to make out a meal plan like you do and see how much money I save. Thanks for the inspiration! I usually spend about $50-75 bucks a week on groceries..including formula and diapers. I usually just set up a monthly budget for food and other stuff. I like the idea of weekly budget. I'll let you know how it goes.
Sounds like you did very well this week! Good for you.
Dropped by from SITS.
Hope you had a great birthday! Sorry this is late, but I am making every effort to welcome all of our new SITSas! So this is my big welcome to you. =)
