Frugal Friday: Plumgarths Meat Pack

I am looking for ways to keep the food budget down and eat local. So when I heard that one of our local farm shops (Plumgarths) was running a family meat pack for a week for £30 I thought I'd check it out:



So I got:

  • a dozen local eggs
  • 8 sausages
  • 4 chicken breasts
  • 4 beef burgers
  • 1 pack stewing steak
  • 1 pack minced beef
  • big pack of bacon
  • 1 frozen meat pie

Of course being a family of 1 adult and 2 young children this is more than 1 week's worth! So I must jiggle the freezer to get some of it in there. I will have to update this post with how I use all the pack.. As I normally only spend £10 a week on meat this is will definitely need to be spread out.. I will track our progress as we go:
