This week

I'd like to say that we ate all the meals planned last week, but we didn't even come close.
We definitely hit our budget last week because we had such a busy week that we were out & about and didn't even get home until 8 or 9pm, so we picked up McDonalds and uh.. Little Caesars..a few times ;)

This week will consist of these meals that are left over from last weeks meal plan:
- BBQ Shredded Chicken Spaghetti with Red Onion
- Zuppa Toscana Soup (Olive Garden Recipe)
- Sloppy Joes
- Grilled Cheese
- Chicken Tostadas
- Slow Cooker Sticky Chicken
- Tacos

And that will be enough dinners for 7 days worth, so if we stick to the plan this week than we will be right on track. I went to Walmart today for cereal, granola bars, some Halloween candy (I had a $1.40 off 2 bags of Wonka candy and the candy was marked at $1.98 for each bag so I got 2 bags for $2.60), snacks for Kc & I and it was $30.
I'm gradually learning how to use coupons for food and not having a stockpile of anything is SUPER tough for the time being. I know that I'll build it over time and hopefully not have to pay full price for anything again ;)

My totals this week: Walmart Trip + Target Transformer Deal = $31
