Party/ dawat Budget?

Re: Party/ dawat Budget?

I am always looking out for sales and coupons. I mostly buy generic so coupons are not that useful for me unless the sale plus coupon price is getting me a better price than the generic. Walgreens has a sale on soda, 7 up to be specific right now so I am going to get some of that tommorow. This crowd here like desi food plus they shall appreciate some western style food as well, hence the menu.

Look for sales at the grocery store. Depending on what is sale - and use coupons and plan your menu. Also keep in mind what that particular group likes. A few years back all of our friends were punjabi. So a saag or palak/spinach dish would always be present. So whenever it was out turn to host I would make palak gohst. Then were moved to place with a predominantly Bangladeshi crowd. So then I would make a fish dish or tuna kababs. Anyways after a few parties you know what you need to do for parties in a particular circle.

Get pizza from the store that gives you the best deal. I would definitely get a couple pizzas cut to 16 pieces. The older kids don’t like the cut up pieces though.
