Grocery Shopping – Week of 4/26

Posted by Admin on Apr 29th, 2009

0.99 x 4 = 3.96
3 Kroger Ice Cream Novelties
1.00 x 3 = 3.00
4 Kellogg’s Cereals, 17 oz boxes
2.18 x 4 = 8.72 – four 1.50/1 coupons = 2.72 [...]

Grocery Shopping – Week of 4/19

Posted by Admin on Apr 21st, 2009

There wasn’t much in the way of big sales this week.  I got about 5 pounds of grapes at 88 cents a pound last week and that was the only deal I thought was worth it, so all I got on Sunday were 4 newspapers.

4 newspapers
1.86 x 4 = 7.44 + tax = $7.99

So Sorry….

I really meant to get the grocery shopping post up tonight.  I even got the entire thing written, pictures inserted and everything.  Then I went to publish it and there was a whole bunch of stupid code in it that I did NOT put there!  I really can’t figure it out tonight.  Tonight was [...]

Obviously, I don’t need to tell you guys that I’ve taken a blogging break the last week or two.  It was absolutely necessary, though…if something didn’t give, I was going to lose my mind!  I was so overwhelmed with travel, business responsibilities, sick kids and preparation for our Spring Holy Days.  But we are finally [...]

Walk For Maddie

Posted by Admin on Apr 11th, 2009

Last Tuesday (April 7, 2009), Madeline Alice Spohr passed away unexpectedly at 16 months old.  I and many other people had come to “know” Maddie through her mom Heather’s blog, so this news was a blow to people worldwide.  Her life touched so many people, and she will be greatly missed.
Since Maddie was born premature, [...]
