Week 3 Quick Trip 2



Aldi - $13, including tax

For those of you who are as much as of a label reader and whole foods enthusiast as me are asking,
"Do you know what is in that bread?"

I know, I know  HFCS, among other things, many of which I cannot pronounce.  In hindsight, maybe I should have just gone to Costco.  I would have gone overbudget because of the larger quantity, but I would have gotten the same things at about the same price per unit and gotten the bread I prefer.  Oh well.

I hadn't intended to need more flour, butter, brown sugar, or sour cream this month, but we did run out and they are essential for some of our meals these last 2 weeks of February.

So far, still under budget...$7.50 left for February.

Our second produce order of the month should arrive today.  I think all I will need to buy next week is some more milk.  I could buy 3 more gallons at Costco or Aldi and hit the max right on the nose, or buy 2 organic and go over by 4 bucks.  Silly stuff.  I am just thinking aloud... please ignore my pettiness.

I wonder if we will need to try to up our food budget in the coming months.  The plan is to start baby food soon for our 6 month old... I am thinking so.
