What I learned, do NOT take my kids with me to the grocery store. I should have done a price check each time on the catalina deals to verify my numbers were correct. $30 gone, plus the cost of each item went up significantly on those transactions.

total for week so far:
108.44 still holding on to my cats.
strategy with cats (as if it matters...I plan to go to the store on Sunday to buy the All detergent. I need the HE ones and I think they will be near free with coupons and catalinas that it generates.
The contest will be over starting Monday, but I think if it would continue, I would have $30 to start the week off.
Friday night my dear friend LB came over for dinner. She organized my cords under my computer for dinner.
I made dinner salad, farfalle pasta with a tomato cream sauce, salmon, red onion, bell pepper, and fresh basil. Made focaccia bread. And had 'culinary circle' molten lava cakes with french vanilla ice cream and coffee for dessert. With my limes, made some more margaritas --yum!
Now it is Sat night and I made an Italian pot roast with potatoes and veggies.
Today, washed and chopped garden tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers. I am getting ready to make salsa.

Sunday we went to a water park with the kids. At this waterpark we are able to bring in a cooler. I packed: apples, carrot sticks, sliced turkey, and bottled water.
Then we went to dinner at Moe Joes cajun restaurant. We had 3 cocktails, kids had orange soda, jerk chicken appetizer. I had ahi tuna with a cesar side salad and fried okra, my husband had a pasta dish with alligator. We used up one of our $25 gift certificates that we paid $2 for.
The oop $79.59 (included the 18% tip plus $2).
So we blew our $100 for the week.
Total: $196.37
Note: I do not regret spending the money. We ate well, spent time with they family in a 'staycation', and my pantry is better stocked than when the contest began.
