So, last week was a flop with getting to the grocery store.  Luckily we had food in the house to be able to make some meals.  Others were drive-thru.  With that being said, we had double the amount of money to work with this week.  Since we were starting to run low on some items, we ended up going shopping on Saturday instead of my usual Monday.  Here's what's planned for dinner this week:


Monday
Tuesday
Wednesday
Thursday
Friday
Saturday
Sunday

With the family loaded up in the car, we headed off to Walmart and then Wegmans.  Here's the lists for both places:

As I stated earlier, we had double ($100.00) the normal weekly budget to work with.  We ended up spending a total of $76.82.  That makes us under budget by $23.18 which will be carried over for next week.  I also earned $0.50 for the milk, $0.25 for the carrots, and $0.25 for the lettuce through Ibotta.  What's your dinner plans for this week?  Staying in or going out for Valentine's Day?
