Yes, I really do let my children eat this stuff. |
Not a
lot of thrifty stuff went on in this house with all of us sick. We did manage to treat ourselves with over the
counter medications we already had on hand as well as lots of hot tea and soup
from the freezer. Believe it or not, we
also had enough tissues.
We ate
predominately from the freezer and pantry last week.
I didn’t
really do any grocery shopping. I did
stop at the store Monday for a deli chicken and a pre-made salad. Total cost for that was $9.48. On Saturday I stopped for two bags of pre-cut
slaw to make a salad. Each bag was
$1.00. I also bought 4 boxes of cereal - on sale $1.68 each.
Throughout
the week we watched several DVDs from our own collection. I sold five DVDs to a friend.
I sold
three dozen eggs this week.
We
purged the girl’s clothes. After my
oldest handed down to my youngest we put the rest in a bag to donate. I now have a bag of holey jeans to turn into
summer shorts.
After
last week’s bounty the chickens only laid 12 eggs this week. I think they were worn out.
I let my kids eat sugar cereal sometimes too. And pop tarts! :)

I've decided a little every now and again won't hurt.
DeleteMeh... my kids eat it too. It's a rite of passage... ;) lol!!
ReplyDeleteGood job on saving $$ again this week and make a bit of extra $$ as well! :)
My favorite as a kid was Capn' Crunch w/ Crunch Berries. Still is, ha, ha!
