I still have 9+ dollars left, but I am not going out again while it is 7 below.  It just isn't worth it to me.  If it warms up in the next few days, I will venture out and get a few more things and will add them later if I do.

 I ended up going to get some meat, etc. over the weekend.  I bought Italian sausage, ground beef, bacon, a celery stalk for soup and a small ice cream for my husband since he came with me.  I spent a total of $5.62.
