We had to buy milk, bananas and toothpaste today for our needs, but food for dinner, noooo problem!
Last week, I got these Hormel Polish Sausage 2-pk, BIGIF for $4.99. So that made it $2.50 each pk for us. Then in the freezer, I had these two store brand frozen bags of stir-fry veggies with rice that only cost me $1 each. What to make, what to make?
A one dish wonder called Sausage Stir-fry!
I only used one of the sausages, making it $1.25 + $2, subtotal- $3.25
Then, my children found a box of family size brownies in the pantry, that cost me $1.49 (on sale, $2, reg. $2.50) since I bought it with a promo of B10G$5off from Kroger.
We only had water and 1 full plate each (that's all we needed, oddly enough).
So let's see... $1.25 + $2 + $1.49 = $4.74 / 5 of us = .945 or 95 cents a plate + dessert!
Can't beat that!

Hi May, thanks! If it'll help you, go for it! :-)
You go girl! A frugalista!
Sounds like great ideas too. It's great that your kids are involved, helps them be more accountable as well.
Hello Tauna, I agree! I love being frugal!
