Hi Theresa, I don't believe that $13 to $15 dollars a day for a family of 4 is too much. I think it's pretty frugal actually. Especially if you don't eat out much. That's only 91 to 115 dollars a week for 3 meals a day for 4 people. As for the cleaning. i know right now that I am having a very hard time with motivation & Vanetta posted this morning that she was also. I've had to make myself do anything this week. I am working on laundry today & straightening.
