Woohoo!!!
Let’s all go in as much debt as we can!!!
I filled up my gas tank last night, so.......
OTOH, hit the local grocery store, they were out of the steak specials I was looking for so.......rainchecks. So I noticed a few other specials. Turns out most of the items were even cheaper than the shelves said. Except for the salad kits which were as advertised.
So I picked up a few things for the old prepper supply - it’s down a bit from rotation.
14 - 24 oz cans of spaghetti sauce - lots of food cheaply
4 - salad kits - lettuce, other salad components, dressing, toppings, etc.
2 - 24oz ketchup in plastic squeezable bottles
2 - 20oz mustard in plastic squeezable bottles
Total spent: $27:43 - with tax: $28.90.
I was pretty pleased when the total came up.
I bought several KC strip steaks for $5 the other day. 6 still in the freezer.
Figured I had better buy before it gets worse.
My grocery bill is up $50 a week now, for all of the same things I’d normally buy. Been doing the usual continual stockpiling where I can. Gas is still ridiculously expensive, but it has come down a bit in Wisconsin; didn’t check other states.
Really glad we raised a beef steer last year; will be getting a culled steer to raise from our Dairy Farmer Neighbor again in the near future.
Other than shopping Loss Leaders, keeping things as local as I can, I’m kind of tapped out on other ideas. Not spending ANY money on home improvements this year, which is rare for ‘This Old House.’
Out to water the garden, which will eventually provide us with lots of canned goods in the future. If we even HAVE a future. ;)
