Groceries!!!
I did NOT feel like grocery shopping today at all, but we literally had no food. Anyway here is what I got today... I am very pleased with my trip. I upped my budget a little becuase I got really low on canned goods, so I went to Aldi and picked up some of those. I spent 18.00 extra at Aldi along with my 50.00 grocery budget. But I got a lot of stuff.
I also got a lot of items today that I didn't have coupons for. I usually don't do this often, but we were out of certain things (like coffee filters) I also bought more meat this trip. I am trying to increase my protein intake and also my veggies. I don't feel that I have been eating enough of these things.
Total amount before any savings at both Aldi and Bi-Lo: $ 107.15
Total amount spent after savings: 68.97
Total savings: 38.18
This is not the best I have ever done, but for not being in the mood to really try and save and for trying to re-stock my stockpiles.. I think I did very well.
Here is what I got if you are interested or can't see it in the picture.
Bananas
a bag of onions
red, yellow and green pepper
squash
zucchini
frozen corn
5 beef and bean burrittos

After looking over my receipt I see some errors where they rung me up for the wrong price. I am going to go back and double check some of these because it might save me quite a bit more.
