Shopping went well the past month.  I’m starting the transition from winter to summer foods – ie less oven and no school lunches – earlier this year as last year I had stuff that basically sat around all summer until fall came again.  I’m trying to work down the pantry and be a bit smarter about those things.  As such, the grocery bill has been nicely low.

• March TOTAL: $722.12
  • Stop & Shop: $80.37
  • BJs: $329.66
  • Other: $312.09
    • Local: $45.87
    • Wegman’s: $141.73
    • Star Market: $61.96
    • Trader Joe’s: $21.89
    • Target: $28.65
    • Other: $11.99

(I’d like to say the local purchase was all produce, but its not.  It is still consistently below freezing here with heavy snow cover.  $30 of this was the birthday cake.)

Sickness is still afflicting our house, but now it’s a cold so that’s not so bad.  But, you’ll see some dinners that didn’t get made last week and I’m pretty sure not everything listed will get made this week.  So, there might be a few that reappear next week.
