The $50 a week is all my fresh items we use each week. When I Facebook about my dinners each night I include the price of those items.<br /> I spend about $400 a month to feed my family of 6.<br /><br />I feed the following<br />Myself<br />Husband<br /><br />Daughter-13<br />Daughter-10<br />Daughter-6<br />Daughter-6<br /><br />What you see is what we eat. No chips, no soda, no junk food what so ever. Our junk food is muffins I make etc. We do buy local beer and wine in the beginning of the month as well but total cost is about $20 and last us the whole month which is included into my food bill. Also in our food bill is things like toothpaste(I make), soap, laundry soap(I make) toilet paper, etc. <br /><br />Does this help? Anymore questions as away!!!Surviving and thriving on pennieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17549443211123230264noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1156719194860099075.post-74332319397856155652011-04-11T14:03:47.415-07:002011-04-11T14:03:47.415-07:00Does the $50 a week feed your entire family?
