$50/week Shopping

So it has been a little while since I have been to the store.  The last time I went to Aldi, I forgot to bring my debit card and didn't have any cash on me.  I got to the register and pulled out my checkbook (hoping they would take is just this one time) and of course I was turned down.  I had to leave my cart, which had lots of great meat deals, and walk out empty handed.  So that week we ended up grabbing a few things here and there as we needed them.

This week I was able to make an actual trip to the store and get what we needed for the week.   My purchases this week came from Aldi and Grocery's by Joe (a local grocery store).

I am always super excited to find bread on sale at Aldi.  This is the second time I have found bread for .49 a loaf.  I got 4 of them and we will freeze them until we need more.  We had most of our meat that we need for the next couple weeks so I got a handful of random things.  

*Draino (our bathroom sink is plugged)

*tums

*pasta salad

*half and half (for some soup)

*chicken broth (for soup as well)

*2 boxes of stuffing (I have a turkey in the freezer that I plan to make sometime soon and we didn't have any stuffing)

*2 porkchops (I know it's not enough to feed our family, but I didn't want to go over my budget and figured I could freeze them and use them when I got some more.)

BTW - My sister and I will be having our monthly Freezer Meal get together on Wednesday of this week, so be on the lookout for our meals.
