Shopping Part 2

Ok ok....so its not tomorrow. I know. That aside, I wanted to say a little about how well I did. I went to Publix and was diligent in my shopping. I stuck to my list. Everything totaled up without coupons or discounts at 124.88. I walked out of there paying 84.00. Who hooo...For my first time I thought I did pretty good. My husband, however, not as proud. I stocked our cabinets a little fuller with junk food than I normally do. Not b/c I had a coupon but b/c I am staying home now and the girls and I would like to snack sometimes. Well, he's pushing for me not to be buying that much "junk". We will see who wins that battle.......maybe we can compromise.



I decided I am going to go grocery shopping every week for the good deals to keep myself from over buying in my usual twice monthly trips. I figured I am home so what difference is it going to make. I wish I could have taken a picture of all I got for 84.00 bucks. I can give a little I remember:



1 gallon of milk

5 boxes of cereal (Post and General Mills)

2 40oz jars of Jiff Peanut butter

2 bags of Dorito chips

2 cartons of Keebler deluxe cookies

1 box of nilla wafers

2 boxes of 100 calorie snacks

1 kraft cheese shredded

1 jar of pickles (Olivia's favorite)

2 pizza crusts

1 5lb bag of apples

1 sargento salad adding

2 bags of tossed salad

1 yogurt based salad dressing

1 11lb All laundry detergent

2 hot pocket packages

2 links of sausage

2 cans of ravioli

2 kellogs breakfast granola bar packages



That is all I can think of right now....maybe I will think to take pictures next time.

(I should have posted sooner so my memory would have been better)
