Ravioli, Pasta Sauce & Pizza Sticks do NOT make a good weekday meal. You need some kind of vegetable to go with it. Like steamed fresh green beans or a mixed salad.

I think I'm going to start making notes of these deals when I make my grocery list! I keep missing out on them.

I agree with Raquelle.. I love a good deal, but eating healthy doesnt have to be expensive.
Every week there is some kind of vegetable on sale. Sub out the pizza sticks (what are those anyway?) for zucchini or broccoli. Much better choice!
