So you have 112 rashers of bacon. Ummmm,  ;D

Gert

  :o 112 rashers  ???  Definitely time to off load it to the kids  :-[

If you each had 4 rashers each week it would last you 14 weeks..  If you each had 2 rashers each Sunday it would last you half a year.

I buy my bacon from the deli when it is on special. I usually buy a kilo and freeze it in lots of 2 rashers. Our freezer seems to fill up on single slices of bread that get lost in there and cupcakes that seem to breed in there.  :-\

Week 1 went well $86.92, mainly staples, its going to be hard $100-$120. Week 2 will be in budget but it will get harder from then on.

How is everyone else tracking?
