Day 5-Saturday

Total OOP for week #1-$11.31


We've been doing some housework today. 3 loads of laundry, defrosted the big freezer, organized the cupboard.


1. I have made a list of all items in my grocery stockpile.





2. We had a nice breakfast of breakfast sausage patties, eggs, and toast. Everything from our stash. Darlin Dan and I used to go out for breakfast every Saturday and/or Sunday. But since we started low carbing, we have found it easier to eat at home. Darlin Dan has lost 20 lbs!





3. I made a pitcher of tea sweetened with my splenda stockpile. I have a huge splenda quick pack stockpile from last summer. This was before I started stockpiling seriously. I read on a low carb forum that they were discontinuing splenda quick packs and that you could buy the boxes at Big Lots for $1. I bought over 50! I use these for everything!


We have a serious addiction to Bill Miller iced tea. Biller Miller is a BBQ fast food restaurant here in So. Texas. It originated in San Antonio. Anyway, we used to think nothing of picking up a large unsweet iced tea to go for $1.29! We don't do that anymore. I don't even pick up fast food for lunch anymore!





4. Our entertainment for tonight will be the Saturday night poker game with family. We could possibly be out $10 tonight! Or, we could come home winners! I usually take a big bag of freebies
and give it away to the winner of a special poker hand. That is always a hit. Although we might lose some money, this activity is priceless. We have sooo much fun and we enjoy visiting with Darlin Dan's sisters, brothers in law, nieces and nephews.
