Check out these pictures! I am so pleased to have a full pantry again! I was feeling a little "thin" in the food department these last few weeks. I like to have so easy foods to make for those days I'm really busy; to keep us from eating out!
Everything in both pictures..... Drumroll please.... $33.75!!!
My Best Deals are in the picture. Apparently I hit the salvage store right after they got a new truckful. My new strategy is to pick through all the items and get the best prices. They usually have tuna marked 40cents, but I noticed one marked 30 cents. I picked through and found all the 30cent cans. (There was no difference and nothing was even close to expiring!)

I also found one can marked free because it didn't have a label. Hubby laughed and said it was probably cat food. (we have a cat, so no problem there) It was tuna!
I found the same price difference with the cereal. The six boxes of cereal I bought were marked $1.00 and $1.25 each. Some of the same brand, size, expir. were marked $1.50 and $1.75.
The noodles are organic; 40cents each one pound bags. 3 bags macadamia nuts 25cents each. 2 bags walnuts 25cents each.
My favorite find..... Coconut oil $1.00! We use this instead of shortening and sometimes butter. It is usually $2.89 at Walmart.
Not pictured oranges, lettuce, mayo, milk, eggs, peanut butter, catfood, and a 16# Turkey!
Oh, yeah; Hubby bought 2 bags of Doritos.
I'm very pleased with this week. We also traded sewing for organic hamburger and were given almost 2 quarts of goat milk! All total we spent $62.44. $57.56 left for next week.

Wow! You got some great deals! We don't have a salvage like that in my area.
You are doing a great job on feeding your family on $60 a week. If someone would have told you that a year ago would you have thought it could be done?
I feed my family of 6 on sixty dollars a week as well. This includes meats, staples like rice, beans, juice, etc. as well as husehold cleaners and paper products.
We have given up some things to make this happen but we have gained so much more in the process.
May good bless your endeavors.
