Boost Your Budget Pantry Challenge--------Week 2

My stockpile is not as great as the extreme couponers, but I have built a small stockpile that I am proud of.  I am usually able to get away with spending very little on pantry items each month, but bargains on meat are harder to find.  I am going to join Denise @ Shopperstrategy to try to reduce my stockpile for the month of January.  I want to reduce my average spending to $200 dollars for January.  My family is a family of carnivores so this is where most of our money goes. We all so like to endulge several times a week eating out because of hectic work and school schedules, but when we eat out we make sure we use some type of restaurant special or coupon.   I am looking forward to reducing my stockpile and saving a little money on the side.
