I cooked up some frozen biscuits and eggs, this time covering the eggs with some <a href=\"http:\/\/www.baconsalt.com\" target=\"_blank\">BaconSalt<\/a> that I had in the pantry.

That fell through, so I found myself home again. Not being in the mood to cook I went the &#8220;bachelor&#8221; route by reheating some frozen pizza from a pie I had cooked up last weekend and drink a few beers with it.<\/p>\n<p>The two slices of pizza came from a frozen pie purchased for $8.95 and yielded eight slices. Therefore my two slices cost me $2.24.<br \/>\nThe beer were already in my refrigerator as well, and the six-pack from which they came cost me $7.99. Therefore my two beers cost me $1.33<\/p>\n<p><i>Total cost = $3.57<\/i><\/p>\n<p><u>It Should Also Be Noted<\/u><br \/>\nI also ate a cup of cheese soup and drank two beers at the end of the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.onin.com\/bs\" target=\"_blank\">Black Sheep Hash<\/a>. It costs $7 to run the hash and the beer and soup were included in that price so I haven&#8217;t penalized myself for those. During a completely strict competition I would have either skipped the hash or made sure not to consume any food or alcohol at the end.<\/p>\n<p><u>Tale Of The Tape<\/u><br \/>\nThe day&#8217;s total cost = $4.79<br \/>\nThe week&#8217;s total cost = $30.97<\/p>\n<p><u><b>Make sure to check out the others who are still actively taking the challenge<\/b><\/u><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Tami<\/b> at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.runningwithtweezers.com\" target=\"_blank\">Running With Tweezers<\/a> [or Twitter <a href=\"http:\/\/www.twitter.com\/tamih\" target=\"_blank\">@tamih<\/a>]<\/li>\n<li><b>Mike<\/b> at <a href=\"http:\/\/mikeboutte.com\/eaton30\/\" target=\"_blank\">Eat On $30<\/a> [or Twitter <a href=\"http:\/\/www.twitter.com\/boutte\" target=\"_blank\">@boutte<\/a>]<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Thanks for reading along with this week&#8217;s Challenge.
