$100 Budget Weekly Menu 1/27/12

$100 Budget Weekly Menu (for six people including three teens!): One reason that I am able to stay home rather than work full time is that I try every week to stick to a grocery budget of $100, and the primary way I do that is by menu planning. Here’s a look at our menu for this week.

Check back later today to see my shopping for this week (and link up your savings!).
