I &#8220;forgot&#8221; to record the paying of a bill last week. This mistake meant that we were not able to make our huge restocking trip to Costco on Thursday as we had originally planned. Instead, we scaled way back and spent less than $100 to purchase meat and several other items that we were completely out of.\u00a0 This week, the plan is to shop on Saturday. I know this is not the smartest thing we could do but it will be easier this Saturday as opposed to next Thursday prior to Christmas. This weeks menu plan is simple and uses what we have or were able to purchase last week.<\/p>\n<p>Breakfast- Saturday- Cereal and milk. Sunday-Big Breakfast ( eggs, bacon, grits and toast), Monday thru Thursday Choices or cereal and milk, . Friday- Baked oatmeal-Choices of eggs, fried bologna, grits, French toast or toast.<\/p>\n<div id=\"page\" class=\"hfeed\">\n<div id=\"main\">\n<section id=\"primary\">\n<div id=\"content\">\n<article id=\"post-5582\" class=\"post-5582 post type-post status-publish format-standard hentry category-budgeting category-menu-planning category-saving-money\">\n<div class=\"entry-content\">\n<p>Saturday- Kids ate at Amanda&#8217;s, Matt had Burger King and I had Biscuit King (both Matt and I ended up working) Sunday- Baked Potato Soup in Instapot.
