We are trying to be on no spend, eat down the pantry challenge.  I thawed  a bag of sausage, thus  a lot of sausage meals this week.  

Our food purchases last year were an average of almost five dollars a week less than our 4.00 a day budget of 56.00 a week.   This grew a pantry.

It’s not what you buy as much as it is when and where you buy it,   

Nabisco saltine crackers are 2.74 at Walmart for a box,  the same box was purchased yesterday for .50.  Over five times more money.
