Deal or No Deal

So moms seem to be in this save-on-everything craze. Man, more power to ya. I just don't think I can do it. I mean I CAN do it, but i don't want to hunt around and run around town to say pennies. I think it is awesome awesome awesome that people can do it. My buddy Christa is amazing. her goal is to feed her family of 4 by only spending $100 on groceries a week. At first I thought, ack, no big deal, easy peasy. Then I thought about us. Matt and I typically spend $10 a day on lunch for the two of us while at work. We order pizza 1 or 2 times a week ($25 a pop). Right there that's $100. Doesn't even include 7 breakfasts, 2 lunches, and 5 dinners! I admire Christa!

I ran accross this website today online http://www.5dollardinners.com/. Such an awesome idea! I find stuff like this and get really inspired to do it. I do it for about 2 weeks and then fizzle out. I just am so exhausted after working and picking up the kids from school and day care that making dinner and stuff isn't at the top of my list (laundry doesn't even make it in the top 100!!). I need someone who is gonna kick my butt and make me stick to it. Hubby is too nice and cares too much about me that he is willing to just order pizza so I can take it easy. How about I quit to stay home and clean and cook. I wish I could afford it. Maybe if I have twins, right Christa?!
