Weekly Shopping Trip of $75.10

This week I didn't go to CVS or Walgreens because I didn't *need* anything, my storage space is full and I am questioning when enough is enough. So I went to Meijers and a smaller grocery store(Family Fare) to get just a few sale items along with some WIC to get us to next payday.



My Meijer run...

4 loaves Aunt Millies Bread Buy one @ $2.99 Get 1 Free minus 35 cent coupon
2 pkgs Aunt Millies Potato Buns Buy one @ $2.79 Get 1 Free minus 35 cent coupon
2 pkgs Boneless/Skinless Chicken Breasts(2.5lb bags) Buy one @ $9.98 Get 1 Free
1 pkg Bob Evans Roll Sausage $2.39 minus 50 cent coupon
Fritos/Cheetos Buy one @ $2.49 Get one Free
2 pkgs Chicken drumsticks @ 79 cents/lb --$2.43
2 pkgs Ground beef from round @ $1.99/lb--$5.46
2-3lbs tubs Country Crock margarine $4.00
2-24 roll pack Northern TP $11.00 (brand worthy!)
1 Cantaloupe $1.25
2 tubes of Crest Kids Toothpaste $3.98 minus 2-$1.00 coupons that hubby picked up at his dentist appt! That made the tubes 99 cents each!
2 packages of Bob Evans Maple Sausage Links $4.18 (This was my extra item!! I couldn't pass up looking thru the markdown meats!)


Total for my Meijer Run... $46.34
Total Savings Total $37.66

I also walked out of there with a coupon for $5 off my next purchase of $75 or more! :)


On to Family Fare....

3 bottles of Tropicana Twister 3/$5.00
4 Cordon Bleu $4.00
2 heads of lettuce $1.16 (58 cents/head)
bananas $1.29
Pork Loin $1.69/lb--$6.03
2 family pks ground chuck $1.69/lb--$11.28

Total for Family Fare Run...$28.76
They don't have the savings total at the top of the receipt like what Meijer does. So I'm guessing here but I think I saved about $15 maybe a bit more! :)

Total for both stores....$75.10

I did not do too bad! However, I am sure that others did better than me! Go check them out over at Shopper Show N Tell and Super Savings Saturday
