The next couple of weeks I am going to try and cut my household budget by eating very simple, but nutritious meals.  I want to have a little extra mad money for Kmart’s Super Double Event.

This week I spent $61.78 – $22.86 (coupons) = $38.92 OOP

I will be spending a little bit more for some last minute items needed for this weekend.

downsized_0315001045Not pictured – Lots of things for the cats.  (food, etc…)  I picked up more fruit at another store.  Our local store had the Healthy Balance Juice on sale for $1.69 with $.55 peelies on them making them $.69 each.  I picked up a few more bottles for my stockpile.  The Dannon yogurt was also free.  The four pack is $1.00 with a peelie for $1.00 off any multi-pack.  Go figure?!

Cereal, yogurt, fruit, cinnamon toast

I am going to try making homemade yogurt this week.  I’ll let you know how it turns out.
