This week was an easy shopping week for us. I didn’t go to Walgreens or CVS because I wasn’t that excited by their deals. I also didn’t go to HyVee even though I was planning on it…the kids napped late and we just ran out of time. I was looking forward to stocking up on [...]
We had a fantastic shopping trip this week! By shopping sales and matching coupons, I saved just about as much as I spent!
This week was a good shopping week! We only shopped two days (and one of those days was just a 15-minute trip to Dillon’s in the afternoon) and came in well under budget!
On Sunday, I got my newspapers at Dillon’s as usual.
4 newspapers
1.86 x 4 = 7.99 with tax
On Monday, we went to Dillon’s again [...]
My plan to pack all the shopping into one day this week didn’t go as planned. I ended up going to Dillon’s with just Ava on Sunday, CVS and Walgreens on Monday with the whole family and Walmart and Aldi on Tuesday with just me and the kids. So three days of shopping instead of [...]
Somehow in the last few weeks, grocery shopping has become either an all-day event or a two-day marathon. I’m not sure how that happened and I can’t say I like it. We’ve been splitting it up and doing 2-3 stores at a time, instead of just powering through and getting it all done at once. [...]
It’s been awhile since I shared my grocery shopping trips with all of you! I normally shop on Monday, but instead of sharing it earlier in the week like I normally do, I’ve decided to schedule the post for Saturday, so I can participate in Super Savings Saturday!
Here we go…
On Sunday, I ran to Dillon’s [...]
So do you want to see what we’re eating this week with the groceries I posted about earlier? Here it is (and yes, I know, it’s barely Monday anymore…but it still is Monday for another 40 minutes according to my clock).
Monday: Shepherd’s Pie from the freezer
Tuesday: Chicken Cutlets, Homemade French Fries, Green Bean Salad
Wednesday: Cowboy [...]
I am getting back in my groove. For the last few weeks, I have been either out of town or just doing the bare-basics-shopping and skipping the bargain shopping. But now my life is settling down a little (as much as it ever does, I guess), so I’m back in my blogging and money-saving grooves!
Last [...]
No Menu Plan Monday for me today…and no grocery shopping this week either! A week and a half ago, we came up to WI for Chad’s sister’s wedding and then the kids and I stayed at my grandparents’ house while Chad went back to Kansas to work. We will be here for another week (I [...]
Last week, KMart was doubling coupons up to $2. If they had actually been doubling $2 coupons as well (which I thought they were), all of this stuff would have been free. Unfortunately, they weren’t (the coupon had to be under $2), so I ended up paying about $10 for all of this. A little [...]
