One of the boy’s favorite meals is called Appetizer Buffet. I pick out a few frozen appetizers to bake at home, and set up a big buffet on the table, pass out plates, and let everybody dig in. Usually I pick up whatever is on sale and looks good, but this time when Appetizer Buffet was on the menu I decided to go through my coupons and see if I could find some good deals.

I came up with enough coupons to make a tasty Pizza Buffet at home. Let’s break down the costs…

• Red Baron French Bread Pizza (2 pk) $3.33 ( I had $.75 in coupons)
• Red Baron French Bread Pizza (2 pk) $3.33 (I had $.75 in coupons)
• Digiorno Flatbread Melts $2.78 ( I had $.75 in coupons)
• New York Toast: Garlic Cheese Bread $2.98 (I had $.40 in coupons)
• 1/4 Jar of Pasta Sauce: the jar was $1.09, so I used about $.25

The Buffet supplies came to $12.67, and I had $2.65 in coupons, so that gives me $10.02 for lunch/ or about $2.50 a person. The best news though, I used only 1/2 of the pizzas and garlic bread, so I had enough left over for a fast dinner for the kiddos. Shopping wisely with coupons gave me 2 full meals for 4 hungry people for about $10.00, I think that is a great deal! No complaints from the boy’s either, they loved the buffet, and I have a few more coupons to keep this simple meal going.
