Less than $100 for Two-Week Menu

Today I did a two-week grocery shopping trip. First I checked the sales, then quickly made a two-week menu, prepared my shopping list, clipped coupons, and loaded several e-coupons onto my Giant Eagle shopper's card.  I shopped at both Aldi and Giant Eagle and paid $97 for everything you see below.  




My fridge and shelves still hold lots of items from previous weeks, so I didn't have to buy everything I needed for my two-week menu, but I did have to restock several baking items and canned goods.

Our two-week menu includes some yummy meals such as homemade pizza, meat, vegetarian, and white chili (we like chili), chicken pot pie, spaghetti casserole, beef and noodles, spinach and feta cheese quiche, etc.

How many items? I can't tell

73 items. Meat, produce, and milk throw off the $1 per item goal...
