So we started out planning to spend $40 a week for 2 adults.  We failed to consider non food items, so that total may climb to $50 in the future.  Yes we went over this week, but we will have chicken for a few weeks.  Also, currently we have frozen veggies and some other meat in the freezer.

Items I missed (mostly so I remember for next week!):
Mayo or Miracle Whip
nonstick cooking spray
