Welcome to the fourth week of October’s LWD Grocery Haul series in which I share our weekly grocery purchases, including prices. I’m always curious to see what others purchase and what food prices are in different countries or regions. I hope you are finding this series interesting and helpful.

I bought a few higher priced items this week such as the pot roast and large jar of honey. I should get a few meals out of the roast and maybe some to put in the freezer. I may shred enough for tacos next week.
The Italian sausage was supposed to be ground sausage like I had used in a pasta bake last week and was on sale. They were out, though, and my shopper asked if she could substitute for a package of 5 sausages. I didn’t realize it wasn’t also on sale (same brand) but that’s okay. The package does have 3 oz. more than the other one. I don’t have a specific plan for this but it should be easy enough to find a good recipe to try.
The family pack of chicken contains 3 huge breasts. I’ll just need one tonight for our tacos and the other two will go in the freezer for next week.
My planned menu for the week:

As always, I’m more aware than ever of how high food costs have gone, especially when seeing them in print. Ugh. Your menu looks tasty as always!
It’s really astounding, isn’t it? I could get better prices at Aldi’s but my mom is very particular about brands and it’s just easier to do our shopping in one store. I occasionally do an extra shop via Instacart from Aldi and stock up on a few things. I’m just grateful that we are in a position to afford groceries as I know there are so many who are struggling.
