I needed to stock up on some meat... so I ran to my local grocery store. Ground beef and chicken are on sale for $1.79lb!!!!

I grabbed 2 packages of that at $2.18lb (not a great price-- but it's natural) I also grabbed 5lbs of ground beef. My meat totals were $33.23....

My total spent was $48.82--- the rest of it was a splurge... i'm making red velvet cake balls!! :o)
