There is a good side to everything. We felt out of sorts all week - which was not great - but it was actually good for our budget. I didn't feel like going to the store so we ate mostly from the pantry.
We ate very well this week, but we spent very little. My largest expenditures fell on Wednesday, when I took advantage of a sale price and some coupons I had on hand to stock up on basa fillets, and on the weekend, when I stocked up on bread flour and produce.
Here's what we spent last week:
