Well hello there,
How was your weekend? Did you do anything fun? Did you score any super fantastic deals at the grocery store or the Farmer’s Market? I thought I did a pretty job buying groceries last week. I netted some awesome deals, but most of all I was excited about coming in under my $25 a week budget. I’m going to need to do that a few more times if I am going to stay on track with my whole one hundred dollars a month food challenge for this year.
Here is what I purchased
Albertsons $7.58
Milk is on sale this week for $2.29 a gallon {I think I need to go back and grab some more} and as I was walking towards the dairy case I noticed Pillsbury Cinnamon Rolls were marked down to $1 each. Hot diggety! The kids were excited.
Albertsons $1.50
Some nice person left a $1/2 Hormel Chili Coupon next to the product. I love when that happens.
A barter with Chino the Handyman
3 Pounds of ground meat for 4 pain in the neck chickens. Sounds like a deal to me.
Albertsons $.49
I am really excited to try this pasta! The vinegar was on sale for $1 and I used a $1 off Everyday Essentials coupon from the Albertsons coupon booklet to get it for free. The pasta was priced at $4.49 each and on sale for B1G1 FREE. I won {2} $2 cash tickets from the Albertsons Summer Sizzlin’ Sweepstakes. I cashed in the tickets and used the earnings to buy the pasta.
Albertsons $6.99
The Handsome Husband wanted bbq last night so I had to run to the store and pick up some chicken. I paid full price.
Double coupons are pretty stinkin’ awesome if you ask me. You can read more about this transaction HERE.
Albertsons $1.00
The Awesome paper towels were FREE with the $1/1 Everyday Essentials coupon from the Albertsons coupon booklet, I won a free bagel with the Albertsons Summer Sizzlin’ Sweepstakes, and the Tropicana Orange Juice was $3.00. I doubled the $1 catalina coupon from the above transaction and only had to pay $1 for the orange juice. Saweeet!
Total Spent This Week $17.66
Total Spent This Year $630.78
Total Spent This Year on Garden Seeds/Supplies $451.12
Total “Seed Money” donations received $8.00

Looking for a shopping cart? Amazon currently has the Step2 Little Helper’s Grocery Cart on sale for $34.97 shipped. This is a really nice and sturdy shopping cart. I have purchased this cart before as a gift before and stuffed it with crackers and healthy snacks and given it as a gift before.
