How the heck did you get all that for under $50?!?
You need to call me. I'm having Melissa withdrawal.
That's amazing. I don't know how you get such good deals. I spend your monthly allowance in 1 week, but having teenage boys doesn't help!! I'm certainly not the bargain hunter like you are. Keep up the good work!
Was this last week Publix or this week?
Keep up the good work!
One day, when my grocery store type food food storage is at 4 months I'll put my self on a budget. Well I kinda am I spend $150 every 2 1/2 weeks, but I also have to get my diapers and other young kid products with that. But I know I'm up to nearly 2 month of food and 6+ months on toiletries.
