$100 Budget Weekly Menu 7/20

$100 Budget Weekly Menu (for six people including three teens). My two main strategies for saving money are:

(1) to make a weekly menu plan based on the sale items in my area;

(2) to buy multiple sale items when they are at their lowest price.

Instead of deciding my menu first, I look at the sale items plus what I have in my pantry, fridge and freezer, and then make my menu based on those items.

You may not be able to get the same kinds of deals that I do (check back later today to see this week’s shopping), but you can save simply by making a menu plan. Use my menu as a starting point, or check out eMeals menu plans. They start at just $5 a month and my readers can get an additional 10% off the already low prices by using promo code PEACEFUL!

**This week we were able to get burgers, hot dogs and pork chops FREE though a credit I had.

Please Note: I post my weekly menu to encourage menu planning and to give meal ideas, not as a nutritional standard. You should feed your family based on your priorities and values.
