A New Challenge
A goal Michael has set for me this month is to only spend $100 on food. That's about 1/4 of what I spend now. I'm up for the challenge.... nervous. But I think I can do it. Ok, realistically - I'm thinking $200. But we will see how close we can come to $100. I know a lot of people do it.. And JUST food, not including diapers, etc. I will send out an update every week. This could be really interesting or really boring. I guess you'll just have to wait and see.

does that include eating out or just groceries? I want some specifics here before I follow you on your little quest.
so I take it you'll be eating out of food storage too? (mmmmm, mayonnaise sandwiches again..)
Includes eating out and some dipping into food storage.
I'm sure this is possible! When I was at safeway, a lady saw me looking for the cheapest box of fruit snack for Mattson. They had a sale of 4/$8. However, the in-store ad had a coupon for 4/$4. Then, the lady handed me 2 50 cent off coupons when you buy 2 boxes. SO, I ended up spending only $2 total for 4 boxes of fruit snacks. Okay, sorry...long explanation. Meaning...one day, I'll understand coupons. This lady was so nice and sat there with me to make sure I understood what she was giving me! LOL
Good luck!
100 dollars for the entire month? Really?
