Time to Update the Budget

I want to test this more, but it would be great if it works all the time and wasn't just a flook.

Free Hot Drink at Barnes & Noble
Here is a coupon for a free hot drink at Barnes & Noble. It is an IP and good until October 31 so there is plenty opportunity for free coffee.
The bold print says cappuccino, but the find print at the bottom also lists latte, cappuccino, expresso, coffee, or hot tea. It looks like hot chocolate is the only thing not included.

This weeks Menu
Karin suggested that it might be nice to know what I actually cook with all these random things that I buy. I've thought about it in the last, but at times we don't eat very exciting or healthy things. Usually not for a lack of food, but more for a lack of energy or creativity.
Well, for this week at least I'll let you know what we are having for supper. I try to have it planned out by Sunday night or Monday because otherwise I tend to not be able to think of things and we just eat things like soup, pasta, or grilled sandwiches.
I usually just plan supper. We will having leftovers usually for lunch or I'll make Noah something that he asks for and have a little of that myself. One of my problems is I tend to make family sized meals for 2.5 people, cause of this you'll notice that Saturday is usually clean out the fridge day.
If I get really ambitious I'll try to write out what goes into my meals and how much they actually cost. I can't always remember because some of them use ingredients I bought a long time ago, but I'll do my best if I have time.

Friday
On your own. Noah is heading out to grandma's so I'm taking the night off. I'll probably have cereal and Jason will probably make eggs.
Saturday
Left overs. Most of the weeks will feed 4-6 so even with Jason taking some for lunch most days there is always things left in the fridge at the end of the week.
Well, I hope this gives you an idea of what I am able to make with all those random things that I bring home. As you can see sometimes I freeze or store things for a long time. I am constantly going through the pantry and pulling things to the front that need to be used up. Usually I am able to work them into the menu, but occasionally I still forget about them and then end up getting tossed. Case in point is the teriyaki sauce that I found tonight while getting out the olive oil. It expired about two weeks. It's probably still fine, but some things I just don't like to chance it.

Cheap or Free Curly's BBQ meat tubs-Cub in Shakopee
Update I found a $1/4 IP for the Yoplait. It's a Brinks so you should be able to print 2 from each computer. If you are able to get 4 IPs then it will bring your OP down to $2.50 on 20, plus you will get the coupon for 2 free at checkout. Brings the per cup cost down to just over $.11 each. Great Price!!!
Was at the Cub in Shakopee after church this afternoon and they had tubs of Curly's pulled pork, beef, and chicken on sale for $1. There are blinkie coupons out from a while ago for $1/1. I had two coupons and used both, but I think the expiration date on them was sometime in December.
They are only available until the supply is gone. At 1:00pm they were fully stocked, but I saw lots of employees going back to get them as they went on break.
The tubs are a little over 1lb so even without the coupon it is a great price. The expiration dates on the tubs I grabbed were all in December so there is a long time to use them up. I believe they also freeze well.
There is also a good deal on Yoplait Yogurt. Buy 20 for $10, get $2 off with the in ad coupon. You also get a Catilina coupon at the register for 2 free cups of Yoplait. There are also coupons out for them. I think the best coupons I could find were $.40/6 cups and then also 1 free cup WYB 6.
This is what it would look like
21/$10.50
$2 off 20 in ad coupon
-$.40/6

-Free WYB 6

Total =$5.80 + 2 free coupons catilina

Free Carrots at Target!!
Target has not IP coupons out this week. There is a coupon for $1.00 off 1 to 3 lb bags of Green Giant baby carrots. 1lb bags are on sale this week for $.99. Looks like it is a great time to stock up on carrots!
