Week 50    1-28 oz bottle peanut butter

Some weeks you will not have spent as much money, so set aside the extra for those items that will cost a little more. For every person in your family double or triple the amount of the item you are buying that week. Or if you are like me, you may just buy half of the amount listed and build food storage for several years. Do whatever fits your budget.
