Menu and grocery spending.

Tomorrow and Wednesday, I’ll be posting about why I plan my menus and also how I do that, but for today, I’m just posting the menu.

Saturday

• frozen pizza(I know…what a cop out. We’d just gotten back from our trip, though, and $3.49 was cheaper than ordering a pizza or getting fast food!)

Sunday

• French Toast
• Orange Juice

Monday

• Chicken and Bacon Wraps
• Corn on the Cob
• Apple Slices

Tuesday

• Shrimp Taco Salad
• Refrigerator Rolls

Wednesday

• Cilantro Panini
• Tomato Basil Salad

Thursday

• Pork Chops
• Bagels
• Apple Slices

Friday

• Grilled Pizza
• Green Salad

And here’s my grocery spending for the week(including the shopping trip I posted about earlier this week).

$18 at a local chain(was $28, but I have a $10 cereal rebate sent out)
$55.38 at Weis, after taking my $10 rebate out.
$8 for milk from the farm
for a total of
$81.38.

Considering that I stocked up on about 20 boxes of cereal this week, that’s not too shabby. And if you count the $7.90 that I got credited back to my account, I’m actually under budget. In addition, I have $10 in store credit bucks(from the cereal promotion) to use towards my grocery shopping this week. Woot!

Incidentally, having to post my grocery spending here this week made me go and update my Quicken(I’m chronically behind on Quicken most of the time!), so that’s good! Maybe there is hope for me.
