See my $60 grocery budget meal plan for this week.
$60 Grocery Budget Meal Plan
Sorry I’ve missed posting the last two weeks. I’ve been sick and barely keeping up with life.
We are currently trying to save money on regular expenses so we can pay off some unexpected medical bills, so our weekly budget is $60 to feed three adults. (My oldest three children have moved out on their own.)
BUT, because I haven’t felt well I’ve shopped without a list and that caused me to be over budget.
Here’s what I purchased this week.
I also purchased some non-food items which are budgeted separately, but my grocery total for this week is $76.97.
Weekly Total: $76.97
October Monthly Total: $235.07
