Brigette’s $79 Grocery Shopping Trip and Weekly Menu Plan for 4!

This week’s shopping trip is a “coming winter storm” kind of thing – meaning our stores have been wiped clean (which is what we do in the South when there’s a possible snow and ice forecast – everyone’s grocery shopping thinking it’s going to snow for the next few weeks, haha!) and I had to adjust my list based on what wasn’t available.
