Cool Website

Okay - I am not sure if I have mentioned this before - but I found this great site for menus - www.e-mealz.com It has been advertised lately on the local radio stations, however, my family has been using this site for over a year. I love it!! It gives you menus based on the ads in your grocery store. It has a menu for Wal-Mart as well as one for Smiths. It also has a general menu that you can use anywhere. I use this menu for my off weeks in the CO-OP. Using this menu has helped us save a great deal of cash when it comes to our food bill. I think on average (this is including baby food and formula) we are spending about $95.00 a week to feed a family of 5. The menus are easy and they are different so you are not eating the same thing time and time again. They also have a regular menu (for 4-6 ),weight watchers menu, a low-carb menu, a low-fat menu, and menus for 2-3 people. So... if you can beat that price for groceries - let me know how you do it- because I am very interested. Also, the CO-OP(http://www.crossroads-u-c.org) for November has some great stuff - with no fish (I put that in there because some of you were worried there is always fish - btw-there is hardly ever fish )! If you are interested in the e-mealz website - let me know and I will send you my log-in and password so you can see for yourself. Also, I don't know if I have any out-of-staters who read this - but you don't have to be a Utahn to use this site - it is for everyone!

Hey, great post! I'll have to check it out! Can I join in on the co-op thing? Is it one day a month? Sounds great to spend so little on food. Way to go Jen!
