This week was another “Make really cheap meals so we can stock up” week, but I did SO much better this time around! I found lots of meals in my freezer, so we’re basically eating out of that this week. The bad news is, our freezer is now empty of meals, so I’ll have to fix that! Come see what I got this week!

This is amazing to me!! We spent so much on food! Usually 1$120-$150 a week for a family of 3. Today when I shopped my grocery store had some buy 2 get 3 free items. I always stock up on those.

I buy as little processed food as possible and that usually in a higher bill but will careful planning, I can also save quite a bit of money.

Awesome! We're slowly getting rid of the pre-made foods, although I do like the bottled salad dressings. =)

Don't you just love finding good buys? Takes a little bit of work on your part going though ads, and a new way of shopping. But it's so exciting when you get a lot for the price. I price match at Walmart, and I watch CVS, Walgreens and Kroger for sales.

I LIVE for grocery shopping every week, haha. It's like a game to see how much food I can get with the money I have!
