We are looking forward to having the 4th off this week from work and cooking the ribs we got last week on sale! With our savings this week we got some random items along with dog food, sandwich meat, drinks, bread and cheese.

All of this week's trips were made with Frank IV.

Bi-lo. We saved $48.33 or 54% in about a 20 minute run in trip. Got green tea bags for $.30 but nothing free.

Kroger. We took advantage of buying 10 race items twice to get two $3.00 off instantly. We saved $74.23 or 61%. Best deal with 10 Kool-aid packages for free and Domino sugar for $.09 and free BBQ sauce as well.

Publix. We bought Pull-ups (nightime $7.39 after $3.00 in coupons) plus 5 12 packs of Pepsi. Still we saved $50.10 or 48%. We did get free 12 pack and free mustard then Lysol cleaner at $.35.

We found several free items and out most expensive item was dog food $9.49 (smaller bag was on sale this week).

Grocery Store Trips Week Ending June 21, 2009


KROGER Shopping Trip pics (12 packs of Pepsi not shown)



Publix. Saved $40.01 and 44% this week. I stocked up on deodorant for Frank (4) and random other things that were on sale or that we needed like lunch stuff for both me and Frank. Nothing too exciting but all things we will use and eat. Although I did get two sets of free emory boards plus a little overage ($.22 in overage which almost paid for my 4 pack of Yoplait Yoplus Yogurt for $.25. )

Bi-Lo. I got a $.40 discount for bringing my own bags. Being green can save money sometimes! I saved $56.03 or 48% this week, including 6lbs of country style ribs, 3.6lb. of chuck roast and 3 8 oz rib eye steaks. That goes with the 2.5lb of Kraft cheese plus 32 slices, two boxes of Fruit Loops ($.55 each) , frozen McKenzie corn ($.26 each) Chips, popcorn, Ken's dressing, cinn rolls, grands, cookie dough and breadsticks (buy 4 get $2.00 instantly and I had a $.75 coupon), trix yogurt, salad mix and tomatoes and couple other things,.


And the fun trip was Kroger where I saved $60.02 or 57%. And I have a picture of this one. It is really kind of random things like cookies, shampoo, razers, 5 bags of animal crackers, bread, milk and 5 12 packs of Pepsi (one was free with 4/$12.00) which are not in the picture. The suave deodorant was free with coupon for one and $.25 for the other. Not too bad.


Total Coupons Used: $51.68

Frank IV was with me at Kroger and Publix which was interesting. We are pretty stocked up now as you might imagine. It looks like steak tonight for Father's Day.

This week is Vacation Bible School at Grace. Frank IV and I will be there every evening until around 8pm. We are looking forward to a great week of Edge VBS and learning new things. I am helping with the snack times for the VBSers and Frank will be in the toddler/preschool group.

Kideny Stone update

I did pass the one *moving* stone on the right side last Wednesday/Thursday. So I am feeling better at least. I still have the ones on the left side in my kidney. Not much they can do except tell me to call if have the horrible pain again...and to come back in 6 months.
