I splurge on alcohol. Lemonade is usually on my go-to shopping list for summer gatherings.
Chips are always a win, but I shop more at Target than Walmart.
Cheese platters are a must
I agree. meat is my go to!
Yes, I definitely agree with this list! I splurge on things to make a cheese plate.
I agree with the results, When entertaining in Summer or anytime I always have a cheese platter with crackers and also chips with dips. I have been shopping at Walmart more trying to save money.
I definitely agree that walmart is the place to go for shopping for foods when you have large gathering. their price are pretty reasonable.
I love to splurge on items for appetizers and desserts!
Definitely!! What goes better with entertaining than cheese and dips/ chips?! Summer is the best!!
I agree with the results. I don't splurge on any one item, I usually stick to my tried and true items...hamburgers, hotdogs, salads.
I splurge on the appetizers. Those are first and are usually what people remember.
I agree with the results and I usually splurge on wines
drinks
I agree but I normally don't have mainly cheese and crackers. I'd offer those as a side or something. I normally make pigs in a blanket when I have a group of friends over.
I agree for the most part. I buy lots of summer fruit (watermelon, cantelopes, strawberries, blueberries, peaches, etc.)
