How often do you calculate how much it cost you to make a meal? Tonight as I was getting out my ingredients, I did some rough math and here is what I came up with:
1-lb Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breast $1.75
- Marinated in Italian Dressing I made money buying
Julienne Potatoes I made money on last fall at Safeway
- I cup milk $0.14 (2.19 per gallon/16 cups)
- 2 tablespoons I Can't Believe Its Not Butter which was also a moneymaker
- Final Price of Potatoes $0.14
Can of Green Beans ?
- This were super cheap. I got them on an instant savings deal and stacked with a coupon the store doubled. Seems like they were about $0.09?
So for roughly $2, I was able to feed my family of 4! I can't even get a coffee in the morning for that amount! I really love the awards of couponing =)
