Savvy Savings!

This week Marsh & Kroger extended their Mega Sale ad so my new friend and I went over the ads & our coupons, made our lists, and set out to go!  I got $233 worth of groceries for $106.11!  Now we will be set on everything for at least 2 weeks (on the milk/bread/egg front) and at least a couple of months on everything else :)

Happy Friday!

We had a huge shopping trip yesterday to get us all restocked for the next couple of months.  The last time we had a trip like this was in November :)  Ever since then we have only purchased items that we need (milk, bread, eggs, fruits, etc.) and those items that were either free or really cheap (less than .50).

So, here are my savings!

Kroger (This week the have on specified items, buy 10 get $5 off for each 10 of those items you buy and you can mix and match!)  Everything that is high-lighted was a part of this deal.  I had coupons for everything but the pizzas.

44 packages of Steamer vegetables (we LOVE these and go through them so quickly!)

5 bags of chicken nuggets

6 boxes of pasta

2 packages of pizza rolls

2 packages of Toaster Strudels

2 frozen pizzas

14 candy bars (for those sweet treats :))

I spent $100 and saved $96


Marsh (This week the have on specified items, buy 10 get $5 off for each 10 of those items you buy and you can mix and match!)  Everything that is high-lighted was a part of this deal. I had coupons for everything but the pickles, bananas, tomatoes, lettuce, and marshmallows)  Marshmallows were Christmas clearance :)

13 bags of smoothies

1 jar of pickles
2 packages of turkey bacon
20 containers of yogurt
bananas

3 containers sour cream

2 packages of eggs
2 boxes of cake mix

4 packages jello (cups)

head of lettuce

15 packages of cheese

4 loaves bread
tomatoes
3 packages marshmallows
4-4 pack yogurt


My subtotal was $176 and I paid $88...Saved $90!

We are stocked and will do this again in a couple of months!  These sales just started yesterday so if you would like help matching up coupons to ads or making a list for the best deal, let me know!

Have a great weekend!

Bulk at Target!

'Tis the season!  Target bulk is back but only for a short time.  Between Target clearing out the Christmas and bringing in the summer stuff they have bulk snacks, toilet paper, paper towels, diapers, breakfast foods, trash bags, etc. for a great price.

Tonight we stocked up on a box of 200 trash bags for $10 (marked down from $13) plus it will last us about 1-1.5 years as the last time we bought trash bags was at least 2 years ago when you had our Sam's Club membership.  We are finally on our last roll!  So, we are hoping this will last us a while!

I got a great deal on tooth floss....8 packages for .97!  I had 4 buy one get one free coupons.  So I bought 8, 4 of those were free, then I had a $2 coupon so that took care of 2 more packages, then I had a $1 coupon so that took care of another package, so there you go....8 packages for .97!

They have a huge clearance on toys!  A great time to stock up on birthday or even next year Christmas gifts.  (We took care of the gifts we need for friends and only spent $20 which is awesome for 3 kids!)

Another awesome deal....a box of 4500 count of paper!  Get ready for this....$6.49!  Yes, $6.49 for a BOX of good quality paper!  We definitely stocked up on that and I will be set for at least a year...or so I hope since I have started to homeschool Lilly and will be printing a bit more than normal :)

I bought 1 box of 22 count Carnation Instant breakfast packets for $6; it was $7 but I had a $1 off coupon so that was an awesome deal as well!

We also got a box of 72 pull ups for $23 and a box of close to 800 wipes for $13....so overall, awesome deals!

If you are interested in any of these deals check them out fast as the bulk at Target doesn't last long!

New Years Goal:Meal Planning & Recipes

One of my New Years goals (notice it is a goal and not a resolution) is to do better at meal planning and expanding our cookbooks.  I know there are a lot of other mommies out there that struggle with meal planning or have a limited source of recipes so my plan is to daily blog on dinner for the next night and to share the recipe so you can expand your cook book as well.  If you have a suggestion for dinner or a recipe to share please do and I will blog and share it with our friends!

Well, why wait for the new year?  Let's have some practice runs :) 

So, what's for dinner tomorrow night?
