November Groceries: Week 4

Better late than never! I couldn't find one of my receipts until this morning, hence the lack of update.

In Week 4, I spent far more than I expected to, despite eating leftovers from Thanksgiving most of the week. This week's budget was sunk by little extras for Thanksgiving (sparkling grape juice, cinnamon rolls), baking supplies for Christmas cookies, and stocking stuffers.

cupcake papers, 7 lb ice, 5.6 lb whole duck (on clearance for $.99 a lb, but I didn't notice the original price), large pizza
Total: $17.28 (no savings, ouch!)
