Fun Friday Shopping Totals: See how I feed my family of six (including 3 teens) for around $125/week. See our $125 Budget Weekly Menu here.
Thanks for your patience as I took last week off to grieve the loss of my aunt. I did go shopping last week even though I did not post my shopping. I spent a whopping $185, but I was able to get lots of meat on sale including country style pork ribs, ground beef, sirloin steak and chicken thighs. I put most of the meat in the freezer so you will see some of it on this week’s menu (and next week’s too!).

I’m so sorry to hear about your aunt.
I’m also envious of your produce market haul! Produce around here is very expensive…I’ve never seen peppers for only 33 cents
That produce market is my saving grace–everything else around here is fairly expensive and they don’t double coupons.
