$50 Per Week Grocery Challenge: Week #43

How Much Did I Spend For Weeks #43?

I spent a fair bit this week as not only did I shop at two different grocery stores, but I also purchased my supply of bulk spices from Azure.  I wait for Azure to have its sale on their spices and this year I bought 5 lbs some of which included cinnamon, garlic, and chili powder.  My total for this week was $73.15.  On a side note we finally were able to celebrate Christmas with my in-laws and spent the weekend away from home so I will not be recording those meals.


Here is the breakdown for Week #43

Misc.:  2 Boxes of Saltines - $.97 each, Spanish Rice Packet - Free, 5 lbs Spices (Cinnamon, 2lbs Chili Powder, Garlic and Minced Onion) - $28.86
