2 Week Menu: October 26-Nov 7th

A few weeks ago I taught 3 couponing/meal planning classes- they were a hit! 

{At least I thought so!}

After having such a great response, I decided to start posting my weekly menus on this here blog. 

I also will be talking about local sale prices- mainly to be price matched at Walmart. 

One part of their Corporate Ad Match policy states: 

"We do not honor competitor's ads from outside the store's local trade territory." Which basically means if you're are outside of the Provo Store markets (depending on the store- the ads might be state/region wide- check the stores in your area to see if the match my store's current prices) then the prices I list are not valid at your local store.

{Gosh, I hope that makes sense!}

*Also, if you are going to Ad-Match, I highly recommend you printing out the Ad-Match Guarantee and taking it with you to the store. This will help you understand and clarify any potential questions. 

I hope that even if you are not able to Ad-Match at your local stores, you might be able to use some of the recipes or learn how to Ad-Match yourself (it is AW.E.S.O.M.E.)

Here is my 2 week meal plan for Oct.26th-Nov 7th: 

Wed: Broccoli Cheddar Soup

Thurs: Roasted Chicken w/ Carmelized Onions Soup

Fri: Pizza Casserole

Sat: Creamy Mac&Cheese

Sun: Chili dinner with friends

Mon: Halloween Party

Tues: Mini Frittatas

Wed: Shepard's Pie

Thurs: Alfredo Pasta

Fri: Homemade Pizza and Breadsticks

Sat: Grilled Cheese and Tomato Soup

Sun: Crispy Southwest Chicken Wraps

Mon: Whole Wheat Pasta Primavera

{I awkwardly feel exposed knowing that on any given night y'all will know what I'm cookin'}

Anyways... here is a list of the best current prices for items that I either needed for the recipes above or needed to get for another reason. You DO NOT need to bring in the sale-ad with you to get these prices. It says right on the policy {which is also posted on every check out lane at Wal-Mart}. 

Sunflower Market: 

Seedless red grapes: .77/lb  

Macey's

Gala, Red delicious, Golden delicious: .99/lb

Avocados: .50 each

W. Family Apple Cider: 1.69 for 96OZ.

Pillsbury Brownie or Cake Mix: .89 each

Don Julio Chips: 1.09 for 9OZ

Buy Low

Fuji Apples: .50/lb

Ground Beef: 1.99/lb. 

Italian Squash: .50/lb. 

Large Dozen Eggs: .99

Red Onions: .33/lb

Yellow Onions: .25/lb

Cucumbers: 4/$1

Don Julio Tortillas: .99

Rancho Markets:

Yams: .25/.lb

I hope that this helps. It is sort of confusing, and I know it isn't all inclusive, but I know living on a student budget is difficult.

Look forward to a post on Rite Aid and Wal-Mart in the near future! 

~~Happy Shopping!
