October 2010: Living Off Of Your Stockpile Challenge:FINALS finally!!!

[twomoms]

So I think my budget is a little bit higher then everyone elses, but I am new to this and we are on WW so alot of my budget goes to fresh produce I would say at least 50% a week.

I budget 15-15 so I am already on my October grocery budget, but I broke it down so I can participate... It looks like I will be coming in at 395.00 for the 3 of us, dds birthday party is on 10/1 so that will be coming out of our budget (except for the cake, my mom is buying that) I have a very small stockpile right now because i was on a coupon break for about a year! (gasp! I know) but i am back and ready to stock up! I see a few soup deals coming up and I fully intend to stock up... (not too much I just had to throw out some soup that exp back in 08! gross)

Pork loin is on sale this week at Safeway here. 99 cents for rib half, 1.49 for assorted chops and 1.99 pork loin chops. Maybe your sales are soon to come!

And I agree those NBPR rebates need to start flowing in soon!

I'm in for October!
My big purchases for the month will be:
Beef roasts and ground beef - if there is a sale
produce - apples, apples, apples...lol, pumpkin, spaghetti squash, salsa items (want to do 1 more batch)
bottled water
Halloween candy (hubby is BAD with this)

My goal is $200 again.

My goal will be $100 again. I will be needing to stock up on hamburger, other than that, it'll be mostly produce, dairy and odds & ends to round out recipes. This month is my 1 yr. anniversary doing the challenge.
