Super Savings Saturday - $46.08 Shopping Trip
 |
| Groceries purchased on March 24, 2018. |
We went to three stores today and purchased the pictured groceries. As with last week, we are spending only cash and we are allowing the children to pick $7 each of snacks for the week. This keeps them out of the groceries that we purchase for the meals and reduces the number of "We have nothing good to eat!" comments as well. Last week and this week, it seems to be working well.
Here is what we purchased:
Store #1:
1 bag Stacy's Pita Chips $2.50 (for Missy's Snack this week - we had something else to purchase at this store, so it was easy to pick up these on sale for her)
Total Spent Store #1: $2.50
Store #2:
Cinnamon Crunch Cereal $1.39 (for Missy's Snack this week)
Marshmallow Star Cereal $1.39
1lb Rotini $0.79
3pk Colored Sweet Peppers $1.99
3lb Mandarins x2 @ $2.69/ea = $5.38 (one bag for Buddy's snack, one bag for everyone)
