Last week I spent $70.29 on groceries.
This week I did get some items at BJ's so I spent a little more, $117.80.
That leaves me $111.91 to stay within my budget for November.
They had whole chickens on sale for .99/lb so I bought the biggest one they had at almost 8 lbs. I will cook it tonight and utilize the leftovers during the week and put some in the freezer if necessary. I also have a couple items that need to get used right away so they will be made at the beginning of the week. They had frozen vegetables for .95 a bag, bought 7 bags. I would have bought more but I don't have the room in my freezer. Ok, on to the menu.
