This was must first trip to the grocery store in eight days. I had stockpiled quite a bit over the past few weeks, so we really did not need much. My husband stopped to get milk earlier in the week and Amee bought me some fresh mozzarella cheese. Today I bought mostly meat, produce and items that were at a Rock Bottom price.
Kroger run down:
The Chiquita Bites single packs were on discount for .49¢. I had (2) .55¢ coupons and (2) BOGO coupons which made all (4) packs free. I also had a free coupon for the Iams dog food. The Hormel Pork Loin was on markdown for $3.99. I will put that in the freezer for next weekend. Kroger mailed me a coupon for a free box of Cheerios. This was the perfect time to use it since the Cheerios qualified for the Mega promotion.
Paid: $19.34 (Used $10 gift card from the AMP energy drink promotion, made my total OOP $9.34!)
Saved: $41.85 between coupons, Mega event discount and Kroger card.
Harris Teeter run down:
I used the (2) $3.00 coupons for the Smithfield bacon to get both packs free. The pork loin was BOGO and I will make it tomorrow to make dinners for Sunday and Monday. The strawberries were a great deal at buy one, get two free and my boys were thrilled when I got home! I did buy the prepacked deli salami and pepperoni since it was BOGO and I have pizza dough in the freezer to use up. I did splurge today since I have spent very little this week! The sea scallops were on sale for $8.99/lb. I bought some to make for dinner tonight to go along with shrimp I have in the freezer. We do love seafood and it is nice to be able to splurge on an item we enjoy.
Paid: $32.06
Saved: $44.25
Weekly Totals:
Spent: $57.40 (includes $6 for milk & mozzarella early in the week)
Saved: $86.10 (60%)
Awesome! My weekly budget is $100 and I am way under this week! Next week will probably be a big week though as rumors of Harris Teeter super doubles are circulating and I need to head to Sam’s Club for a few things.
