What do you all eat? Sunday, February 10 2013

I do not know about you but when I watch extreme couponing or see the deals that couponers get I always wonder what do they eat? I am going to attempt to post each day what we eat and let you know where it came from and/or the cost. Just for this week. This is a typical week for us except for Valentine's Day. This picture is what my hubby bought with his $20 that I give him to get the things he really wants each week. I think the total was $7.28 used a $2 catalina. I do not include this in my weekly $100 budget. Let's call it entertainment budget since we do not go out very often.

I have very picky eaters with my hubby and oldest so some call me a short order cook.
