Keeping it under our normal weekly budget! - Meal Plan and Grocery Trip Breakdown for November 16th - 22nd
It's the middle of the month and I'm slowly getting tired of planning what to have for dinners. I wish I was good enough to make a plan at the beginning of the month and have already prepped dinners. Even though I'm a stay-at-home mom, I'm all about simplicity. Since that's not happening anytime soon, here's what I have planned for dinners this week:
Here's what my lists were like at Walmart and Wegmans. I actually added a few items while I was there and they are in green.
We should of had a carry over of $38.09, but I had forgot last week to buy a few items and used $10 from the remainder. So this week's budget was $78.00. The grand total spent was $44.93 making us even under our normal weekly budget of $50.00. Next week we will have a carry over of $33.07 which will come in handy because I'm going to be making Thanksgiving dinner! Stay tune to a post about that.
