Anyone want to join me on my $100 per week food challenge

[Halex]

Well done JD, whats your average for the year ?

I might get away with the fruit for the 5 days as dh has a fruit basket at work & we have fruit at the gym, plus I am hoping to go to Canning Vale markets today & will buy a few things there. Never been to the markets before

[judydawn]

So far this year it averages out at $25 per week Hally.  My pantry now has spaces and the freezer is not so chockers either.

[Halex]

Well done JD

[judydawn]

Actually no, that's not correct Hally.  Just checked and there have already been 5 shopping weeks this year so make that $20 per week so far.  I've only had 1 x $100 shop so far.

I really must try and get back on track, I'm feeding 4 adults again, think my budget needs to be $ 170 which will include every thing, I spend at lest $50. Every Sunday at the growers market on fruit and veg.

Another $0 spend this week.

Well done Judy.I'm working my way through the freezer.I found three pork chops and some marinade of some sort.So I threw them altogether last night so hopefully they taste OK today

[judydawn]

2 more packs gone from the freeze then CC.  Why is it that we freeze things unnamed thinking we will remember what it is

[Halex]

Isnt it odd And we all do it

Yep guilty here I've got a few things unnamed.I might have to throw them out.

[Halex]

I threw some out a few weeks ago & my mantra was Must label must label

[cookie1]

I thought I was the only one that did this. I think , oh that is easy to recognise I won't label it. 

[Wonder]

I do the same.

[obbie]

I have started to label things in the freezer now...

[mab19]

Same here.  Thawed out something I thought was stewed fruit, turned out to be spaghetti sauce.
