Grocery Budget Update - May

A much more normal shopping month for me this time.  I did two fairly good sized trips to the grocery store and concentrated most of my purchases on fresh produce this month and a few items to stock up our RV.  The produce is so wonderful this time of year, especially the strawberries.  I used nearly all of our non-food budget on cat food, chicken feed, fabric softener and coffee filters coming in at $22.68. 

This is what I bought this month:

The items in blue are things I bought to restock the pantry in our RV.  We ate way too much chips and salsa this month.  Not sure what was going on there.  Tasty though!  And yes, I did buy a dozen eggs this month because fresh eggs don’t hard boil well.  They stick to the shell. 

How did you do with your grocery budget this month?
