Saturday Savings

$31.46

I had to purchase a mattress cover this week so I am trying to cut back on my grocery spending. Although I came in $8.54 under budget, I still have a long way to go to make up $35. Oh well, I tried. :) I was very excited about the free tea this week. It was a treat to pick out different flavors. Also, the cookie mixes I can put back for holiday baking.

How did you do this week!

$40.80...Yes I went over by $0.80, but sometimes you can't resist things.

Meet, things you can't resist. Aren't they adorable and for only $5.

You only have a short period of time when they're young and $5 can make them happy. :) So short, that within 30 seconds she was on to her dad's favorite toy, the remote. Oh well, it was good while it lasted.

Sorry, there's no picture this week. Not only is the battery dead on my camera, but with my baby and myself not feeling good it was all we could do to get the groceries put away.

There wasn't much to show this week anyway. I spent $38.20, but I mainly got necessities we were running out of. Things like flour, yeast (expensive!!), trash bags, juice, etc. However, I did get a few sale items like the Yoplait Whips, plums, and $0.75 cereal from Super One!! I also got 4 more Green Giant Steamers, 2 worcestershire sauces and 4 Kotex pads. Hopefully next week will go better.

How'd you do?

Saturday Savings -- How did you do this week?

$49.39

Well, I went over the amount I try to stay under every week ($40), but I just couldn't help it. They had some good deals that I was able to stock up on. My kids love these granola bars and we enjoy putting olives on pizza, tacos, salads, etc. All in all I thought it was a pretty successful trip even though my cashier at Wal-Mart politely asked me not to come in her line again because my coupons give her trouble. Oh well, you win some and you lose some ;)

How did you do this week? Did you find any unbelievable deals that will make us all jealous?

My Brookshire's Moonlight Madness Success!!

All this for $17.47!!!!!

Well, Wal-Mart wasn't that great this week (I only ad matched 3 items), but Brookshire's was a whole other story. With the deals they were having and the store coupons they offered for Thursday evening only I got all this for $17.47. I could hardly believe it. I highly encourage you to take advantage of this sale when they do it again.

How did you do this week at your favorite store? Did you score some good deals or find some great clearance? Let us know.

**note** I had some good coupons for pet food.
