Excellent work devising menus from the sales flyer!
I think this is the best way to save money, week after week, on groceries!
How many people are you serving because a 1 pound roast just wouldn't cut it for my family of 6. I would need atleast 3 pounds.
Hi Annie!
I'm assuming four people, which allows aprox 1/4 lb of meat per person.
Even using three pounds of meat, you'd still be under 10 bucks, which is not so bad for a family of six feasting on pork roast! :)
Makes total sense I guess I forgot not everyone has 2 adults and 3 teenagers (19,18 & 15) as well as a preschooler they are feeding. :)
