those Costco muffins sound delicious - we don't have Costco in OK so I've never had theirs but the recipe sound yummy

Thanks so much for the great ideas....I have been enjoying your blog since January of this year and I have saved at least $3-400 a month off of our bill. We are a family of 6 and I am thrilled to be down to about $90 a week. Wish we had a Win-co but it's been a real eye opener. God Bless. SS

I love the bakery outlet. I can get three loaves of bred for a dollar so I can always have some in the freezer.

Great ideas this week--we'll probably try the pizza rollups too. Not so sure about the Tater Tots--trying to figure out where the very high sodium count in that recipe is coming from (even without the Tater Tots)! I guess just the combination of the bean sauce, and the wieners, and the cheese.
