... I am hesitant to post most of my savings because every does so much better... but I thought I should share... My total weekly food budget is holding at 135.00 but needs to do much better..There are three of us ( one is an athletic teen) and so I really would love to get it down to 75.00 a week including animal food and tolitries

Today I went to Food Lion and bought

1 12 pk Dr. Pepper
1 carton Breyers Ice Cream
2 Red Baron Pizza's
Bananas
Hotdog...

..~sigh~ I was horrible at keeping the budget down this week... like to the tune of hmmm... 185.00 again... BUT I do have enough TP & pain relievers to keep us going for awhile.

the pantry is very stocked and I shouldn't have to make any mid week runs to the regular grocery store that usually ends in about 20.00 of extra stuff I don't need...

CVS comes out tomorrow and I have a few deals I am after but nothing mega...

...this MONTH my goal is to keep the food budget down to 100.00 a week including animal food /litter and burgers on the road etc... Last week I had it down from 185.00 to about 125.00 but I found I didn't get alot of things I needed. I tried working my first CVS week and I think it was successful for a newbie... stocked up on TP, Pepsi, advil, Bayer, toothpaste and cough medicine.

Grocery freebies were cookies, milk and peanutbutter.

..I thought to keep myself focused...
