Hey Everybody,
Thanks to my friend Kelly's motivation and mentoring skills, I finally got under the $100 mark TODAY on my weekly grocery trip! Rich and I had to hustle to get the food put up because we were headed out to Chick fil a (free sandwiches today! yum!) :), so I didn't get a picture, but I will give you the breakdown:
I spent: $94.
Now, that's my total shopping trip, after going to both Publix and Kroger.
- Publix: Spent $19.95 and saved $27.49. That's a savings of around 58%.
- Kroger: Spent $74.00 and saved $46.47. That's a savings of around 38%.

Learning as I go is the reality of my life!

That's so good! I'm not always the best at clipping coupons, but I do the sale ads online. I always check our local markets ads, write them down and then go there, and if not there, use Wal-mart with the sale ads. Wal-mart is the black pit to me. I go in for 3 things and walk out with 20! Gah! Trying to stay away if I can.
P.S. Thanks for visiting my blog! I feel so honored. Seriously! And the fact you added me... whooohoooo!
I am so glad you are enjoying it, but more importantly saving money! Keep up the good work girl!

That is awesome!
I spend about $300.-$350. every other week and that doesn't include the trips in between for things like milk, bread, fruit etc.
Come on over to the good life, girlfriend! Seriously, if I can do it, anyone can!
