Saving Money in my Frugal Kitchen
We went to UGO (United Grocery Outlet) in Chatsworth on Monday evening.
We found more Flatbreads marked down to 50 cents each, Del Monte canned pears for 50 cents each, Chesterfield Butter Beans for 79 cents each, Hormel turkey pepperoni for $1.49 each ($3.97 @ Walmart), Jimmy Dean turkey sausage for 69 cents, and Tuscan chicken sausage for $1.99 each.
We bought 20 of the turkey pepperoni for the freezer, which is savings of $49.60. Bailey goes through about two packs per month, so this will last us for more than six months.

ReplyDeleteYour menu sounds great - we have very similar tastes!
Have a nice weekend.
Thank you, Cheryl. I hope you have great weekend too. :)
DeleteHi Belinda, it looks like you had a great week saving money. I'm glad the snakes no longer have a place to hide.
ReplyDeleteI'm reading a apolocalyse book now and I dowloaded a flower craft book for free this morning.
Have a good weekend.
Sounds like good books to r3ad, Vickie. I have been getting into audio books this week and it's so easy to get through one quickly that way,
DeleteYou had some great savings and yummy meals!
ReplyDeleteHope you have a fun weekend.
Thank you, Kathy, I hope you also have a fun weekend. You must be busy with summer coming to an end.
DeleteI am a bit more than halfway through "Elderhood" this week. Another great book about medical care in old and old/old age. She graduated med school in the early 90s when Geriatrics wasn't a thing. I'm also reading "a Thousand Suns".
ReplyDeleteHappy Friday!
Both sound like good reads, Elle. I ordered the "Forever Strong" book from the library, but it hasn't come in yet. Do you belong to the Goodreads website? It's a place where you can go and list all the books you've read and do reviews on them.

I too use coupon codes when shopping online, though not often. I mainly buy things from Amazon.
ReplyDeleteHope you have a relaxing weekend, Belinda.
I'm an Amazon girl too, Nil. The shipping isn't as fast as it was before the pandemic, but I still enjoy shopping there.
DeleteWhat great deals you got and I love the way you find coupon codes when shopping online.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your weekend.
God bless.
Thank you Jackie!
DeleteI'm reading The Sound of a Wild Snail Eating by Elisabeth Tova Bailey. It's the memoir of a bedridden woman who acquires a pet snail. It's a small book but very compelling reading. I need to check my library for Strong Women Stay Young, thanks for the recommendation!
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome, Bobi. I'll be sure to check out The Sound of a Wild Snail Eating too. :)
DeleteThat all sounds delicious!
ReplyDeleteThank you!
Delete(Little Penpen) great buys! I would love to find pears for that price!! I haven’t been reading, but would like to find something interesting. I may check those books out.
ReplyDeleteI was floored when I saw pears at that price, Penny. I bought a whole case of them.
DeleteLove these weekly menus. Just starting to meal plan, and they're very helpful - Madelyne
ReplyDeleteThank you, Madelyne. I'm glad you find them helpful.
