The bread store was closed because of the holiday weekend so I'll have to go back there tomorrow. I'll buy 5 loaves of bread for $4.70 which will bring my total to...

Higher than I'd like but considering it's a birthday meal week, I'm pleased.

Do you have a Stater Brothers store? They often put london broils on sale for $1.87/lb and chuck steaks for even less. We not only use them for "steak" nights, but I also cut them up into strips and chunks to use for stir fry, stews, soups, fajitas, burritos, you name it! I will buy about 8-10lbs at once and use it out of the freezer for quite a while!
Wow, 3 cake mixes for $1, that's great!
Thanks for hosting!

I know that you shop a lot at a Grocery Outlet Store. I've found here in Southwestern Oregon that the Grocery Outlet Store is higher than other local markets. I used to shop there all the time.....but not anymore. I save more by using coupons and watching the sales at the other markets.
I know this is unlikely on the current budget, but when it grows a bit, you could consider buying a quarter or half cow. Here (MN), it runs us $200-300 for a quarter cow but it works out to less than $2 a lb for wonderful steaks, roasts, ground beef. Local and no drugs used - the cows are free to roam all day long, so are grass and hay fed. Just a note for the future.
Michelle,
I was just talking about looking into that the other day. I'm very interested.
I see dog rawhides, how does dogfood fit in? I never see it in your weekly booty.
