Yes, a day late and a dollar short. Actually, several dollars short. I came in way under budget this week, but I’m sure I’ll make up for it next week. We’re already on our last gallon of milk.
I shopped at HEB this week and did some stocking up for our emergency kit. HEB had several shelf stable staples (say that three times fast!) on sale, including Bear Creek Soups, which are dehydrated pouches that only need hot water. There’s one flavor that is MSG and dye-free, so that’s what we got!
Total spent: $148. I have $52 from this week and $9 from previous weeks to roll over.
