What's for Dinner

Well with it being Wednesday it is a very day around here. Most days like today we will have leftovers, but I have no leftovers, so I am doing a quick meal.

Safeway Chicken Strips - $3.99
French Fries - $1.00
Apple Sauce - FREE - Made with apples from the neighbors

Total Meal. 4.99

Not bad, but I would rather not use quick meals. But you can still use quick meals and stay under $5.00

Walgreen's $5.00 off a $25.00 Purchase

Walgreen's has another great coupon for us to use now though Saturday. You do have to spend 25.00 before coupons and Walgreen's coupon. But on the other side you can get Register Rewards to use on your next purchase.

Pantry Makeover 2

This is my stockpile room. Well we would like to take that room and build a half bath in there. Well that would be a dream. Just imagine 6 kids ages 9 to 1 and 2 adults and one bathroom. Many times I have been waiting outside the bathroom dancing around. So I would like to build that pantry to move things there so we can get that bathroom built.
