We are getting ready to go to the lake, so I went to BJ's Wholesale Club to pick up meats to bring with me...we will be having mostly barbeques...chicken, ribs, steak, etc. This is a bit more pricey than usual, because we try to have at least two meatless meals a week.<BR/><BR/>And, yes, soda and snacks can wreck a budget...I hope someday to be free of soda...but right now I'm hooked! :)Sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13940623529019637336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4506281235722645086.post-16713361041516397382008-08-07T00:00:00.000-04:002008-08-07T00:00:00.000-04:00My budget is very similier to yours..

I spend about $140 per week for 2 adults, 2 small children ages 8 and 3.<BR/>I do well when I menu plan. What do you have planned for this week? I do terrible when I buy too much soda and processed snacks.<BR/><BR/>Hope this helps.<BR/><BR/>My goal is to be $100 per week.letterstoelijahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06836260184518738834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4506281235722645086.post-60014996705466131052008-08-06T20:30:00.000-04:002008-08-06T20:30:00.000-04:00It's been so long since I had to only worry about ...It's been so long since I had to only worry about feeding myself...I remember when I first got out of college and was living in an apartment.
