But get this weeks haul.....
- 6 boxes of cereal
- 2 boxes of oatmeal
- 3 boxes of saltines
- 2 deodorants
- 5 boxes of fruit roll ups/fruit snacks
- 3 boxes of cocoa mix (winters coming!)
- 4 pounds of butter (we're all about keeping it real)
Total cost? $22.53
There's been times where I paid nearly that for the butter alone.
Good stuff
Doing the two grocery stores a week is really paying off over here. It's become routine - starting at Krogers and then on to Meijers for our maintenance fill. I'm still tweaking a few things organization wise - and learning as I go, but its fun to be coming out ahead.
In other stuff - I stayed up way too late last night surfing the internet for political news. I'm feeling a little apprehensive this morning, but I would have likely felt that either way - change always has me holding onto the handlebars a little bit tighter.
Speaking of change - Allan gets his bottom braces on this afternoon - wish us luck - I'm a little apprehensive about that as well.
Speaking of teeth - (see how this works?) Mark has gotten four of them in the last 30 days. All his canines - now for the 2 year molars.
Off to see what little miss can't get her dirty clothes in the laundry basket to save her life and now wonders why she doesnt' have any socks - is cranky about....... *wink* any guesses?
be good








WHAT? I should've followed you when I saw you at Meijer last night. I bought 1/2 of what I usually buy and my bill was $204!! Sickening.
