but I just wanted to give an update on the pantry challenge. It doesn't "start" until January 1 but today we went to the commissary and Costco. My commissary trip was WAY more than it normally is because I had to replace darn near everything that was in the fridge since it went "kaput" last week :(
Commissary: Before coupons $179.95 After coupons $163.76 (that includes the "surcharge") for a savings of $16.19 or 9%. I'm kinda disappointed b/c I usually am in the 20% and above savings range. I am blaming it on having to buy lots of replacements.
Costco: $74.77 Purchased pork tenderloin, golden pineapple, frozen chicken breast, shrimp cocktail, chicken meatballs and dentyne gum. Definitely could have done better but I feel good about it nonetheless.
Off to build a monthly menu :)
