Weekly Shopping Trip--Saved $17.36

Well it looks like I am starting the New Year in a no spending mode for groceries! I am just doing shopping for what I need to finish meals and nothing more! I am also going to be working at getting ALOT of the convenience items out of my house and working towards more healthier options! It should be interesting how long it lasts!

So for this week, I spent $28.05 and saved $17.36 at Meijers!

Here is the breakdown...

3-32 oz Welch's Grape Jam $5.00
4 loaves Aunt Millies Bread $4.00
1-4lb bag Boneless/Skinless Chicken breast $7.99
2 gallons milk $5.00
4.66lbs pork loin $8.81

Grand Total: $45.41

Total OOP: $28.05

Savings Total: $17.36 (Non-Coupon Savings: $14.61; Coupon Savings $2.75)

Kate @ A Simple Walk said...: How awesome that those things are all you needed for the week. I can only imagine how wonderful it must feel to be able to shop that way.

That's one of the things I'm most looking forward to when we finally sell our house - being able to have a basement where we can set up a stock pile. You have been such an inspiration for me in that!; January 3, 2009 at 10:41:00 AM EST
