Saturday Savings

My weekly budget is $125 and I am currently trying to incorporate as much organic produce, dairy and meat as I can into that budget while making it as local as possible.  This week I spent under $100 which means I got to add $27 to our vacation fund!  That makes me a very happy woman.   In addition to that, my in-laws are here for the weekend so I bought a few things I wouldn't normally have.  So, for a price tag of under $100 I am a very pleased shopper.  The picture is missing the milk & soda.  Here are the details:
