What got put into the freezer last week....

*  3 bags of frozen veggies

*  1 16 lb. beef brisket

What got taken out of the freezer and used...

*  1 bag of Catfish

*  1 frozen cheese Pizza

*  Ground Beef Pie

*  1 rope of Kielbasi

Last week we spent $64.76 on grocery shopping

This brings our food/toiletries/paper goods Total to $64.76 for May.  About half of that spending was for a beef brisket that was a little more than half off the regular price.  The rest was some frozen veggies and fresh produce.

There are 23 shopping days left in May.

I've earned $0 on Ibotta in May.

I've earned $0 on Checkout51 in May.

I've earned $0 on Coupons dotcom in May.

I've earned $0 on Shopmium in May.

I've earned $0 on Kroger Cash Back in May.

I've earned 110 points from food shopping on Fetch in May.

I've earned 0 points from food shopping on Shop Kick in May.

I've earned 0 SB from food shopping on Swag Bucks in May..

That's $0 in rebates(not counting the Shop Kick/Swag Bucks/Fetch)on $64.76 of grocery spending so in reality it's $64.76 in food spending after the 5 rebate apps I count.

My savings percentage for the last week was 43.34% and the monthly savings total for May comes in at 43.34% so far. 

Leftovers going into this week...rigatoni, meat sauce, cabbage, cole slaw, and kielbasi.

Here is this week's "food plan".....

1. Sunday--Chicken Parm, Yellow Squash

2. Monday--Beef Pie

3. Tuesday--Riced Cauliflower, other Veggies and Beef Stir-fry

4. Wednesday--Trivia night at different place so no clue

5. Thursday--Applebee's Salad(late lunch)

6.  Friday--Tempura Shrimp and Zuke, Spinach Soufflé, maybe Cole Slaw

7. Saturday--Chicken in Peanut Sauce, Noodles and Veggies

What do I need to buy to fix everything on this menu?  Zuke, some veggies for the Chicken stir fry.  I am in "use it up" in the fridge mode this coming week.

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 deals on food at your stores this week?
