Good morning all! Today's a nice sunny day and much cooler this morning. Thank goodness. On my way to do some fun chores and to my favorite store, dollar tree where everything is a dollar. But still keep going over my budget. My menu will be beans for a while. Very healthy and much cheaper. I'm going to challenge myself to sticking to my low budget of 25.00 a week. Sounds impossible? Have you challenged yourself to anything lately?

Beans are healthy stuff. It would be nice shopping at a dollar store. I recall doing it once or twice when l went overseas. I can still recall the days when we could by food items for breakfast , lunch and dinner for about $100 - about 20 cents u.s.

Well, I went without a particular medication for a week, but that wasn’t on purpose (just an incompetent doctor).

Good luck on your grocery challenge!

That's a difficult challenge. I know I would miss that challenge without thinking. The internet is addictive.

I'm constantly trying to cut back on what I spend on groceries but trying to stick to $25 a week would almost be impossible for me. Good luck with your challenge and hope you find some good things at the Dollar Tree.

I hope you will stick to your challenge. We have beans put up in our freezer, one of our favorite meals. I can't think of anything specific I've challenged myself to lately.

Thank you. Navy and butter beans are my favorite.
