More grocery shopping ramblings....

Well I did some more shopping since the last time I have been here,  I spent 45.35 at Martins grocery store, but I can't find my receipt so I can't say right off hand what I got. But I remember some so I will post it.

3 pks cookie mix *
3 cans Frosting *
1 bag noodles *
6 pks of cheese *
6 pks of hot dogs
2 thin london broils- they weren't actually london broil, the meat lady said it was the same cut but only thinner? I marinated them both and dh grilled them Sunday, we had dinner for the 4 of us  and 3 lunches from this.
1 pk of mushrooms

* ~ means I had coupons

Ugh that is all I can remember, but the cheese was an awesome deal!! They are normally like 2.99 or 3.something each anyway they were on sale for 2/4.00 and I had 6 1.00 off coupons!! So it came out that they were only 1.00 each pack so of course I bought as many as I had coupons for!!! The hot dogs were bogo free so I stocked up a bit on that as well, we don't normally eat that many hot dogs but for a quick meal they are ok,  so I froze them, that and with prices on the rise constantly I will take all the leeway I can get with groceries~!! I do remember that after my coupons the noodles were .25 so I couldn't pass that up. Of course there was more that I bought, that little bit didn't cost me 45.35 but the rest escapes me!!

Yesterday I went to Costco!! I spent 82.66 and I got

1 whole pork tenderloin~ this will be cut up into 2 roasts and many porkchops
1 slab of Salmon~ this will make 2 meals plus 1 lunch
1 bag of meatballs~ many meals will come from one bag
1 case of tomatoe sauce
1 case of canned mushrooms
1 package of Yogurt
1 box of mini frozen pizzas
2 bottles of generic tylenol

I think that was all I bought from there!!

So for the month of February I have so far spent  255.34,

Now to get my list ready for Walmart, then I should be done for the month plus some!! I know it looks like we are buying alot and many of the same item and I am, we have been without alot of these items for a while and I am trying to get us stocked back up!! Hopefully with my coupons, sales and loss leaders as well as buying in bulk when I can I will be able to stock us back up and then some, without paying too much for it all!!

Soon spring will be here and garden season will be upon us and I hope and pray that we have a wonderful garden this year!! I know canning and freezing the bounty from our garden will only help us!! So here's hoping for a bumper crop!!
