    Default Just back from the grocery store and

    I DID IT. Yea and I still have 53.00 left.
    I spent around $90( the recipts are in the car) and what I got was

    21lbs of angus beef
    7 bbq sauces
    watermelon
    corn
    2 heads of lettuce
    3 cucumbers
    eggs
    2 boxes of cereal
    2 gallons milk
    soy
    4 cans baked beans\
    4 can spaghetti sauce
    olive oil
    vegtable oil
    2 loaves bread
    hamburger rolls
    hot dog rolls
    hot dogs
    pork loin
    peanut butter
    eggs
    6 donuts(reward for the kids behaving so well includes 3 for desert tonight)(
    frozen juice
    bananas

    The cashier had to manually enter some of the coupons because they would not go through.
    Approx savings with coupons $50
    store mark down coupons on meat packages $20
    Coupons I left the store with(catalinia/back of receipt
    another $5 total off beef products
    $2 of store ice tea mix
    $1 off store condiments
    $3 off their all natural products

    I am feeling great about this trip to the store. Even hubby who was a little worried since he does work there was shocked. Now the joy of putting it all away

    Great job! That price of all that beef could have easily made a 90 bill by it's self!

    That is so awesome..I live in Beef Country here in Alberta and I know 21lbs any of kind of beef will be over 90$ for me....Lucky!!
    I have to start my list for my food shopping trip on Friday. Hopefully between Safeway and my favorite cheaper but further away store I don't go over my 200$ limit

    That's really good! I'm new to shopping, instead of just buying what we decide we want, and it's inspirational to read about such savings. WTG!
