Last week saw 7 nights of home cooked dinners....2 nights of Leftovers and 5 nights of new meals.
I made 2 trips to the Weis Markets for $78.46, a trip to the Shursave Market for $15.96 totaling $94.42 OOP. This brings my June food spending total to $252.62. There are 12 days left in the month.
My savings percentages last week was 49.54% which brings the month's percentage to-date to 64.13%.
Leftovers going into this week.......1 chicken fried steak and gravy, pizza(I think), chicken and dumplings w/carrots, salsa verde chicken taco filling.

Here is this week's "food plan"....
* Denotes "complicated" meals
This week will see 6 new meals cooked, 1 nights of leftovers and 0 night of Take-Out/Eating-Out. Daughter is cooking again this Friday.
What I need to buy for this menu? I've got this covered already. We stopped at the Amish Surplus Outlet after we took Hubs to his brew pub on Saturday and found enchilada tv dinners to try so that was last night.(I'll include Saturday's shopping on next week's tally.) I have everything else on hand for this week's menu.

What is getting fixed and served at your house this week?
Was last week's plan successful, did you go off plan or did you not even plan what was going to be eaten last week?
Any great deals on food at your stores this week?

Pretty peonies!
ReplyDeleteI have no idea what we are having this week because I haven't combed through the freezer yet to see what is available, but whatever we eat is gong to be cooked at home. Judging my our June so far we have used all our dining out budget through the end of the year. (Yeah right, it just means we will move money from some other budget into it)
Such pretty flowers!!! I came back after the weekend to find my daffodils had bloomed. Yay!
ReplyDeleteEating lots of leftovers at our house... Will start my diet again after they're gone.
I love peonies, wish I had more in my yard. Looking forward to seeing you soon.
ReplyDeleteI over shopped two Saturdays ago so we need to eat down whats in the fridge and freezer, and no clue what I;ll put together. I'm gone for work a couple days and then have a couple days off so we'll plan as we go, if that is even planning.
