Today's shopping was at 3 stores! Actually, I stopped yesterday by Big Lots to buy a rake and they had Cap'n Crunch cereal marked down to $1.25/box. I bought only 2 boxes because the sell by date is in a month.
I spent most of my money at Aldi's buying our usual weekly fixes -- romaine hearts, salmon, skim milk, turkey bacon, egg substitute, brown rice, fruit, and a few other things. Total out was $41.12.
Next I went to Kroger. Apparently there's a pumpkin shortage this year, so I went ahead and bought 1 pumpkin (it's sooo gorgeous, but really next year I'm growing some Hubbard Squash) along with some yogurt, bologna, cheese, my husband's Active Lifestyle milk, 4 gatorades, and yogurt. There were more markdowns than usual, though not any really good ones in the fresh meat department.
- 1/2 gallon of my husband's milk for 50 cents. It has 4 days left on it, which, generally, is plenty of time for us to use for cereal and baking. If I still have some left in 3 days I'll freeze it in 1 cup increments for future baking projects.
- Quart of half-n-half for $1, some of which will be used for coffee the next couple of days and then the rest will be frozen to use for Christmas breakfast of (overnight french toast).
- Oscar Meyer turkey breast lunch meat for 99 cents each. I grabbed 3 and they are all in my freezer.
- Scoop cat litter -- 14lbs. for $3.39; that's a better price than Aldi's!
Total out for the week was $71.18.

that's good to know that the iTouch has a price book function, I'm thinking about asking for one for my b'day and that'll be a helpful tool!
ReplyDeleteI <3 the iTouch. The *only* downside I've seen so far is that you have to buy the operating software. It's only $5, which is pennies compared to how much you actually pay for one, but really the OS should come with the thing!
ReplyDeleteThe one feature I forgot to mention about the price book app is that when you enter multiple prices on an item, it will tell you how much your coupon needs to be in order to match the lowest price!
