$50 Per Week Grocery Challenge - Week #16

How Much Did I Spend For Week #16?

I had a fairly easy week.  We spent half the week at my parents' lake and, lucky me, I didn't have to plan what we would be eating for dinner and supper.  I love not having to decide what to make for the next meal.

Before heading out to the lake I went to two grocery stores and spent a total of $28.89.  This is week #16 and I have spent a grand total of $622.36.  That is an average of $38.90 for each week. I am saving the $177.64 for a major meat run when I finally use up the hamburger and roasts in the extra freezer and a bulk food buy from Azure.


Here is the breakdown for Week #16

Meat:  3 2.5 lb Bags of Frozen Chicken Breasts - $3.98 Each

Fruit and Vegetables:  2 Bags of Coleslaw - $.98 each, 3 Kiwi Fruit - $1.14, 2.85 lbs of Grapes - $2.79, 4 One Pound Bags of Frozen Vegis - $.98 Each

Misc.:  4 Pack Chocolate Pudding - Free,
