Last week was sort of a weird week. The Girl and I returned home late Monday night from a 4 day road trip and then on Wednesday the HH had to leave for a 4 day business trip. It seemed like everyone was either coming or going, working, unpacking, packing, hanging out with friends or working on house projects. To say last week was a busy one, would be an understatement.
Here are the groceries we picked up last week:
Fred Meyer $14.42
Milk was on sale again for $0.99 a half gallon, butter $2.50 a pound, nectarines and peaches $.88 a pound and junky hot dog buns were $1.59. We also picked up a free Power Bar and a bag of gummies thanks to the Fred Meyer’s Friday freebie deals you can load to your card each week.

Question. Where do you buy your dog food? The HH and I stopped by Petco a few weeks ago to check the price on a 30 pound bag of Lucy’s favorite dog food. It was $52.99. I thought that was high so after we got home I checked on Amazon and found the exact same bag of dog food for $36.99 shipped. A $16 savings! That’s crazy.
Fresh Eggs from Mrs. HB – Free
I stopped by Mrs. HB’s place and picked up a dozen eggs. The babies Lucy and I raised are just now starting to lay {the eggs are so tiny!} so hopefully I’ll be able to pick up a dozen and a half next time. Man. I can’t wait to bust out of here so we can have chickens again. It’s something I think about every single day. Obsess is probably a better word.
