This morning my friend asked me "Do you really think you can get by spending only $50 a week on groceries?" I responded with an unsure "I'm gonna try."
Well let me just tell you, YES you can!
I just got $116.59 worth of groceries for $40.18!!!!! That is over 60% Savings. With my coupons, I saved $76.41...I actually saved more than I spent! I purchased a total of 40 items, making each item about $1.
Here is what I got:2 gallons of milk, 2 loaves of whole wheat bread, 2 containers of yogurt, 1 carton of soy milk, 1 carton of juice, baking soda, spray n' wash, 2 pkgs of egg noodles, 2 puffed wheat cereal, 3 boxes of Cheereos, muffin mix, 2 boxes of granola bars, 2 dozen eggs, 2 containers of laundry detergent, 2 (4 packs) of toilet paper, body wash, 2 deoderants, baby wipes, 2 all-natural whole chickens, 2 garlic cloves, 1 head of lettuce and 2 bags of baby carrots.
I still have a balance of $10 which I will spend tomorrow getting the rest of my produce at the local farmer's market.
