Wow- what a week! I've been a busy little shopper this week, trying to cash in on all these great deals for my stockpile.
Around our house, we budget $50/week for all of our groceries and household needs. I was really pleased with what we were able to get this week. For all of the shopping trips below, we spent$42.02 including tax. (Plus, we earned an extra $2.50 in RR profit to spend at Walgreens, and $3 in catalinas to spend at Albertsons)
