Last year I decided to cut some money on our grocery budget for the month of January. I've been sort of a slacker the past few weeks in planning meals. But I have been pretty good about using my coupons so my pantries and freezers are fairly full.
The point is to avoid going grocery shopping as much as possible. I have a family of five, so of COURSE I will still be going...for things like eggs, milk, fruits and veggies.
It is a pretty good idea to rotate through your stockpile...so January is our "rotate" month!
Plus I like the idea of extra money in my pocket!
So here are my goals for the Eat From The Pantry Challenge:
Only buy dairy (milk, eggs, cheese, etc.) and produce (fruits/vegetables).
Spend a total of $150 or less on groceries during the month of January. About $35 a week is the goal.

Put the leftover money from our grocery budget towards our 2012 Disney Vacation!
I'd love for anyone to join me in this! I will be posting updates every Friday on how I've done!
