New Grocery Plan~see how little I can spend each day…

October 20, 2009 - Posted by pearsonsprogress

grocerysacksWow, we had such a great time with our kids, Jerusha & Nathanial. Now it’s time to save any extra money I can for the Thanksgiving dinner I want to have in November with 17 of our closest friends (Spaniards & 2 Brazilians).

So… here’s the deal… I see how little I can spend each day! Fun, eh?

Today the 20th of October, we ate leftovers… soup (several kinds that were leftover), pizza and rice and canard (duck in french… got it while visiting the kids, Anita & Neil last summer)

So this is what I spent today: $0!!

Not one single cent!!

So far so good!

    i know i could do this… probably for at least a week because i have a stocked pantry and freezer, but we might eventually need to buy some more fresh veggis. i am going to try this…

    Yes, I’m doing the same! Trying to use up all I can and save some cash for the Thanksgiving dinner + the November meat canning that I’m planning. Keep up the good work Anita!

    The french canard was great! Interestingly… as I was eating I noted that ducks don’t have a second small bone in their legs… So, you can serve them to guests without concern for chocking… (that was a free observation) Also, canard spelled backward is “dranac”… FYI.

    Do I detect a wee bit of mockery? Be careful or you may be getting only ‘snaeb’ for supper… that’s beans spelled backward.
