No trips to any grocery stores brought the weekly spending to $0.00 and my October spending on food to $108.97 so far this month.  I spent a bit on vacation and I'll add that in when I get home.

My savings percentage last week was 0%(without Rite-Aid trips)and October's monthly savings total comes in at 45.06%(w/out R-A).

I have 17 more food shopping/spending days in October.
