I spent $49.96 which is well within my goal of $30/week during the pantry challenge. I also have $10 leftover if something comes up - like running out of milk.
I was also able to splurge on one of my favorite treats, hummus and pita! I ALWAYS check for hummus markdowns and was delighted to find some this weekend. You can't see it in the photo, but it's under one of the yogurt cups.
I also strategically bought only non-vanilla yogurt cups for DH's lunches. One of my kiddos only eats vanilla but resists the big tubs. Since I still have 2 tubs left from the last shopping weekend, this forces her to eat the bulk. Bwahaha.
Finally, I bought plain half & half for my own coffee. It's cheaper than the flavored stuff and a teaspoon of sugar does the trick for me.
