This post is inspired by Lessie over at www.mycouponlady.com. She posted today, shortly after I realized my monthly budget was just 240$ for all 8 of us, that she too will need to be living off her stockpile for the month. We had an unexpected 1500$ bill come up, while I'm happy we have the money to pay it going from 600$ for monthly groceries plus the extra money to eat out to just 240$ and no money to eat out at all is a big difference. I am excited and nervous about this challenge.
Tonights dinner is leftover grilled chicken mixed into pasta with some asparagus and the italian philly cooking cream, jello with strawberries and pineapple mixed in.
Wednesday:
Breakfast- cereal and fruit
Lunch- PB&J, chips and watermelon
Dinner- Spaghetti and salad
Hoping others take on this challenge, it's good to start with a fresh stockpile every once in a while.
I will be trying to post my grocery lists this month and keep you updated on how we're doing with this challenge.
