Whooo hoooo! Came in under budget and the fridge is
crammed to the gills with good healthy food.
I am super happy about that.

I had another pretty great month grocery wise. One again I kept to mostly sales items,
stocked up on a few things and kept us well supplied with fresh produce. I shopped at Trader Joes, Albertson's and
Fred Meyer. I checked ads, downloaded a
lot of digital coupons to my Albertson's and Fred Meyer rewards cards and even
printed off a few from Coupons.com. Two
of those digital coupons was for Albertson's and gave me $5 OFF $25 purchase. I have
another one to use too! How about that?

| Trader Joes |
I got quite a few
items on markdown and was fortunate enough to get a lot of my produce this way as
well as to stock up the freezer with bread for sandwiches, hamburger and hot
dog buns.
This month I fired
off an Amazon Pantry order to stock up on household cleaners and some toiletry
items. Additionly, I bought a 20 pound
bag of cat litter and stocked up on toilet paper on sale for 2.99 for twelve
double rolls. Talk about a loss leader! Total spent $26.55, over by $1.55 but I more
than made up for it in the grocery department.
