This week I spent about $48 and only saved about 37%. Not my best ever but there were several things that came up where I spent a little extra money on treats. Brianna's sore throat, for example, required a bunch of watermelon (so unfortunate for all of us) and I did get a bunch of chicken and several other items which weren't on sale but were necessary (like hamburger buns, miracle whip, pizza crust, etc.) So how did you do this week?
