9:55AM

Just back from Kroger.
I ended up going over budget this
week by $6.27.
I like to stay within $45 for groceries each week.
BUT I had a couple extra expenses
like getting stuff for Tony's potluck
tomorrow and I picked up some more
toilet paper since I could get it for cheap.
I didn't really need any at the moment
but figured it's something we will use
and better get it now while cheap
rather paying more for it later.

TOTAL BEFORE: $78.43

I PAID: $26.15

TOTAL SAVED: $52.28

My best deal at Kroger today:
4 boxes of Cinnamon Toast Crunch Cereal AND 4 boxes of Honey Nut Cheerios Total of 8 boxes of cereal ALL 8 FOR $1.16!!!!!!

I didn't list everything I got.
Below are my best deals.

3 (1.2 pound) packs ground turkey- $1.39 each

2 packs double roll Quilted Northern- .99 cents each

4 dozen medium Kroger eggs- .50 cents each

3 packs BallPark Franks- .56 cents each

2 boxes Nescafe Coffee singles- .19 cents each

14 Yoplait Yogurt- .37 cents each

TOTALS FOR WEEK
for both Meijer & Kroger

TOTAL PRICE BEFORE: $144.88
TOTAL I PAID: $51.27
TOTAL SAVED THIS WEEK: $93.61

I saw this on the bottom of my receipt for Kroger.
It shows how much I saved this year so
far by using my Kroger Plus Card.
That's just by using the card and does
NOT include how much I saved with coupons!
By using your card you get the sales
price. Don't use it and pay full price.

Winds are starting to pick up.
Tony just called from work to say
a lil tree in front of an apartment we used
to live in blew over.
When we lived there we had a severe storm that
brought down a large branch off that tree
and onto our cars. The groundsmen came over
with chain saws and was gonna cut the whole
tree down. I saved the tree back then by stopping
them from doing so. But it looks like it finally bit
the dust today :0(
