How We Spend Less Than $100 a Month on Groceries Week 37 of 52

This past week was a wee bit crazy.

With the Labor day holiday and hanging out with my brother who’s been in the hospital for the last few days I totally forgot to keep a log of what I ate at meal time but I did remember to snap a few pictures of what I consumed. This week I stocked up on a few essentials like bread, milk, eggs and yummy produce. Here’s what I spent/bought:

Bread Outlet $10.80

The Girl and I stopped by the bakery outlet and picked up a nice selection of bagels, breads, rolls and buns. Seriously. 10 packages for $10.80. The savings are HUGE when compared to grocery store prices.

Harbor Greens $5.20

Cantaloupe $1.00, broccoli $0.99 a pound, pepper 2 for $1 and avocados @ 2 for $1.50. Not too shabby if you ask me.

Fred Meyer $9.12

Milk was on sale again for $0.99 per half gallon, 18 count eggs $0.99 {I think I’ll make a quiche this week} bananas $0.59 a pound, carrots $1.19 and a free Fred Meyer freebie yogurt.

Zaycon Turkey Breasts – Free with Credit

Here are some of the meals we ate last week:

Turkey, cheesy rice and my new favorite corn side dish.

Leftover turkey… pies.

I’m pretty sure I could live off of tea and cinnamon rasin toast.

On Monkey Boy’s day off I brought him breakfast in bed and included some of his gagalicious Eggo waffles. When was the last time you ate an Eggo waffle?

Corn pudding, rice and lentils. It’s pretty much the breakfast of champions.

Hospital cafeteria food. It’s come a long way baby. 😉

Keep calm and carry on.
