Not alot else going on this week. Nate is back to school after being off yesterday. All the daycare kids are back.
I had two good SavingsAngel shopping trips this week. I already posted about my Walgreens trip. Meijer was good too...$125.55 worth of items for $74.32. Not my best or least expensive trip by far...but I got some really good deals. I have questioned my methods with SavingsAngel and wonder, "Am I still spending too much?" But then I look at it as, I'm spending WAAAAAY less than I was without it and I'm getting WAAAAAY more groceries! So YES, it is working! For example I used to spend around $130.00 a week on groceries. Even at $74.32 this week, that was a savings PLUS I got TONS of items! Honestly, it's getting to the point where I don't know WHERE to put everything! LOL! We are working on getting a freezer, but my bigger problem now...is cupboard/cabinet space! LOL! I cleaned out my linen closet and only put what sheets and towels we use on a regular basis in there, freeing up four shelves. Well...IT'S FULL! LOL! Jamie keeps asking when I'm going to quit bringing home toothpaste. LOL! But how can I not, when it's anywhere from 25-75 cents?!?! LOL! And cereal...don't even get me started. I have 15 boxes of cereal! LOL! Seriously! But when cereal is anywhere from $3.00-4.00 a box...how can I pass it up when it's $1.67?!?! You get the picture. I keep telling Jamie, "Well, if we ever fall on really hard times...we'll be prepared." LOL!
I love reading about your grocery savings!! I feel the same way...how can you pass up such a good deal?? I just got 2 packs of huggies diapers, a big bag of huggies wipes, two bags of hershey easter candy, two sets of easter chocolate bunnies,and a fleece jacket for less than $12 at wal-greens the other day! I was so thrilled and hubby was amazed at my thrifty skills...LOL! Gotta love it!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the puzzle reminder. I have an 8 year old boy and we love puzzles, it's been a while and I totally forgot about them. We also LOVE "all things Disney!" Your blog is really cute~
