Okay I am sure you are wondering how we get by on no meat or chicken, but we don't I normally save a little bit every month so when we find a food value on meats we can stock up. Like at Christmas time this last year we got 48 pounds of chicken (we got it on sale for $.99/#!) We were talking about it this morning because we are actually getting really close to needing to stock up again. We have been running really low on ground beef for a while now, there have just not been any good deals, well Randalls this week has the 85/15 for $1.99/#. This used to be above my price point, but with the prices lately this is a really good price for 85 so we went in fast today to get some. We got 22 pounds, still hoping that maybe we will find a better price but for now we will have enough for a while!
So here is our transaction, I needed a few things for Father's Day dinner too.
4 packs of ground beef ($12.72, $11.76, $11.18, $10.79)
Thin pork chops (14) $9.84
Gallon of milk $3.34
Broccoli $2.18
Carrots $.99
3 Melting choc $1 each !!! super excited about this going to make Chad get more probably. They last a long time checked the date and they are in 2013, and this stuff is great, it is the Dolci brand.
Total 65.80 (saved $58.29 even though their prices are higher than some still great with basically all meat)
Left this month
$160.34 - 65.80 = $94.54
getting a little low, but I had extra to cover since we bought so much meat!
