This is the 14th week of my attempt to monitor my weekly spending and show how I feed our family on $50.00 per week or less. You may notice that when I find a good deal on something, I buy a lot of it.

I just want to tell you how much I've enjoyed your blog since I found it--I live in Western Loudoun so every one of your posts is helpful to me since we shop at the same grocery and drug stores!

Keep up the good work.
