I spent 78$ last night.. but then again.. about 15 of it was on veggies and fruits for the glider babies... and 16 was on pop cans and deposits (it was on sale, but the deposits add up fast), and we bought a lot of restock staples because I didn't go for 2 weeks before we left except to buy things for the babies... I need to make bread/buns tonight.. and we'll go back Sunday for some things that weren't on sale this week and probably will be then...

I tend to buy a lot of frozen chicken, etc and stock up on ground turkey breast when its on sale (only the lean turkey was on sale this week- not the breast).. but otherwise I do most of our shopping on sale items each time, winding up with a good balance.. but it does mean keeping a larger pantry and that there are trips where I spend 200+ on just the 2 of us... then again we have crowds every Friday night at the house, and I feed 5 small critters who eat fresh fruits and veggies daily... I get the scraps and leftovers and freeze sometimes too when I get a good deal on something that freezes well- like the red bell peppers te babies and I both love that were on sale this week, bought 4- will use one or maybe 2 depending on what I make me... and the other 2-3 will get broken down and cleaned and frozen tonight or tomorrow...
