We did it!!! We had a family meeting and made a menu. The plan is to eat at home every night. There was quite a discussion between my husband and son and the following is our menu.
Sunday
- Hamburger patties w/onion
- Potatoes
- Red Beans (I already have)
- Cornbread (I already have)
Monday
- Spaghetti w/meat sauce (I already have the spaghetti sauce)
- Garlic Bread
Tuesday
- Chicken Fried Steaks
- French Fries
Wednesday
- Tuna Salad (I already have the Tuna)
- Pizza (for my son)
Thursday
- Hamburger gravy
- Texas Toast
- Salad
Friday
- Breakfast for supper
- Bacon
- Sausage
- Eggs
- Gravy
For those who have an Albertsons near by, they have Hamburger Helper on sale 10 for $10 and there was a coupon the printable coupon sites for Buy 3 get 80 cents off. If you print off, 3 of them that brings the price of nine boxes down to $.73 each and one at $1.00.
I have my grocery list all made out and while I’m not couponing this week, I have studied the sales flyers and will buy the sales items that will go with our menu.
We’ll see how it goes following the menu. I’ll update later.
