This giveaway has ended. The winners were comments 182 and 210 42!
A lot of people will have extra mouths to feed throughout the Holidays. Family traveling, friends, etc. How do you work those extra mouths into your budget and menu? How about Walmart’s Christmas Dinner for Eight for as low as $30? Or what about the the New Year’s Eve meal for 10 under $40?
With Walmart, it is possible to pull off a huge meal on a budget. Food Network’s Aaron Sanchez has some great recipes posted on the Walmart Holiday Meals Website. Feeding 8 people on $30 is less than $4 per person! I think that can fit into any holiday budget!
Walmart’s $30 Christmas feast for eight starts with these family-favorite ingredients:
- One 10-pound spiral cut half-ham
- Three 8-ounce cans Del Monte Green Beans
- One 10-pound bag of Russet potatoes
- One 12-count package of Sara Lee dinner rolls
- One 10 inch Pumpkin Pie
Chef Aarón created a party-ready fiesta spread for 10 for as low as $40. It includes:
- Shrimp Tray (5 servings)
- Vegetable Tray (10 servings)
- Hillshire Farms Little Smokies (8 servings)
- Pillsbury Crescent Rolls (6 servings)
- Land O’Lakes Egg Nog (8 servings)
- Red Velvet cake
I wouldn’t be able to use the New Years menu listed above because of the Shrimp, but I know most people are a huge fan and love it. I’m sure it would be a hit at a party.
So what do you think…is the price right on the menus? I try to make the most food I can with spending the least amount possible. Stretching food is a skill I have. One of my favorites for Holidays is homemade mashed potatoes. My secret ingredient for making them spectacular….add cream cheese! Yum!
I have 2 $30 Walmart gift cards to giveaway to 2 lucky readers!

My favorite memory has to be last year. It couldve been the worst Christmas ever but my pastor and his family brought over breakfast Christmas morning along with a ton of donated presents. Despite everything that they had been going through my kids said “this was the best Christmas ever” And that was the best gift I couldve ever recieved!

My money saving tips to stretch the holiday menu budget:
Don’t buy all of the items on your list at the same store. If Store A has a few things cheaper, pick them up, then head to Store B for the items they have cheaper.
Also, once you have your list made, visit the manufacturer’s website to search for printabl coupons to take with you on your trip. Sort thru your sunday paper coupons too if you save them.

My husband’s parents lived on a farm, when my husband and I were first married and there wasn’t enough room in the kitchen for all the family and friends that came for the holiday dinners, that they had, so they would set up sawhorses for tables in the attached wood storage room and we would all bring dishes for the tables and his parents would cook the turkey or a big ham and we would all eat and enjoy visiting with everyone.
To save money for holiday meals I buy canned or durable goods for my recipies as they go on sale and I try to buy several of each, like green beans and yams. I squirrel them away in a seperate section of the cabinets so no one uses them. Since I use some recipes for several different holidays, it’s great to have a little stockpile.
I’d like to try the bacon potato bites

Bonus entry: Turn me loose on that Carrot Cake with Spice…Mercy!
My Mom always told me “Make a list and stick to it” I never understood how that helps me to save money until I actually started doing it. By making a list and buying only what is on that list, no extras, no impulse buys, I walk out of the stores spending less than I normally do.

My favorite winter memory was when we were stationed in Germany. We would go to the Christkindl markt and walk through it drinking warmed gluhwein while the snow fell all around us.
My favorite holiday memory is playing football with all my cousins in my grandmother’s front yard!
My favorite holiday memories involve baking gingerbread cookies with my mom!
Smokies-Filled Mushroom looks yummy to me!
My favorite holiday memory has to be Christmas Eve.
We have a tradition starting with the christmas eve candlelight service at church.
Then we celebrate with a dinner and go home to open one gift before bedtime!
Then Christmas day is filled with presents, grandmas and alot of food.
We are passing the tradition along but boy-oh-boy It wouln’t be the same without that Christmas ham.

caroling with my kids is a favorite memory
Grilled Eggplant rollups on their site are not only easy to make,
But Buget friendly too!
(plus i love eggplant)~
Every Xmas eve the whole family gets together for dinner. Once dinner is done and cleanup is complete my three grandkids (3,4,and 6) come into the living room, at the same time the doorbell rings and santa walks in. After a bunch of screaming for exitment they stand by the tree and sing two songs for santa, before he hands out the gifts. Once the giving happend they sing “we wish you a merry christmas to santa” and then he departs. It is a tear jerker every year.

This Christmas was fantastic and is now one of my favorite holiday memories. We saw our foster granddaughter open her gifts in the early morning, then we went to our son’s family where our 18 month old granddaughter greeted us with a purple bow on her head. Last we went to our daughter’s house and saw both daughters and their families. Little Emily clung to me almost the whole time we were there. What a great day!
One of my favorite memories is doing a project with the grandchildren to give to their parents
My favorite holiday memory is the first Christmas I spent with my guy; we bundled up and got hot cocoa before going for a walk through the neighborhood with the most outrageous light displays. Now we do this every year.

My fave holiday memories are of when I was a little girl and Grandma would let me ‘help’ her bake cookies. I’d wear her apron and it was so long on me…it went down to me feet. 🙂
My favorite memory was Thanksgiving at my parent’s before they died. My mother would make the biggest spread of tons of food, and everyone would be in great moods. I miss those times!! Thanks.
I think they’ve taken the holiday part down but I have been there before and the best part of Christmas meal is that spiral sliced ham.

We always do some sort of potluck meal. It saves everyone in the family money, and whoever the host is has less work to do!
My best holiday savings tip would be to shop at strategic times to save money — I find that I get the best deals right after Christmas (both for gifts and decorations), but I also look for great deals on other holidays – like President’s Day and Labor Day – and grab great gifts throughout the year and hide them away until December comes around. Thanks!
The holiday dish from Walmart’s site that looks amazing to me is the Bacon, Apple and Pecan Cornbread Stuffing — I’m going to add that to my list for the next holiday dinner I plan!

Holiday Memory- On Christmas Eve we drove around drinking decaf coffee and hot cocoa and went looking at all the beautiful Christmas lights. It was wonderful to pay attention to the festivity and have fun with family.
My husband thinks the Ham with Mango Jalapeno Glaze sounds the best.
My favorite memory was when my niece wanted to give me her favorite Christmas present (a doll) because she love me and thought I should have it.
My favorite Holiday memory is drinking Peppermint Schnapps in hot chocolate by the Christmas tree with my wife.
The filled mushrooms look appetizing

I buy all wrapping paper for at least 50% off after Christmas and save it for the next year. Thanks!
Definitely the bacon and potato bites.. look yummy…
I save money by shopping the sales and using my coupons. I do this all year too. I rarely pay full price for anything at the supermarket. It really does make a big difference. Most times, I cut my grocery bill almost in half.
My favorite money-saving tip is to shop at WalMart as much as you can. All year round you can get
bargains there that can’t be found anywhere else.
Thanks for the contest.
One of my favorite memories is seeing my 2 year old son falling asleep under the Christmas tree. It was the sweetest thing.
My favorite holiday memory is our great family dinners
During the holidays, I save money by wrapping gifts in comic strips and cool looking sheets of newspaper!

Thanks for the giveaway…As my wife will attest, shop the after-Christmas, and New Year’s Day Sales for great savings !!!
No impulse shopping – look for the best price on what you want.
The Cheesecake at the Walmarts Holiday Meals Website gets my vote.
My favorite memory is just getting together with all the family. Usually we only get together with everyone when there is some special occassion and we don’t see eachother that much throught out the year, so holidays are special. Thanks.

I stock up when pantry stapes are on sale and combine them with coupons.
My dad was in the Navy, so we spent a lot of years away from the extended family, just on our own. My most special Christmases were the ones when we got to come home, enjoy the big family meals, and I was able to spend Christmas day playing with my cousins. There is nothing more special about the holidays than the chance to be with the ones you love.

I remember one Christmas Eve my sisters and I were trying to fall asleep so that Santa could come leave our presents. Then my older sister said she heard reindeer on the roof. So we were all really quiet and tried to hear the reindeer. It is a simple memory but one of my favorites. 🙂

My favorite Holiday memories is when I had my whole family together.
I love just getting together with my family. Even when I was little we’d all sit around and talk and it would get so late I’d fall asleep amid laughter and shouting–it’s the most comforting thing.
