Today's Store Run...
Two stores for me today - Aldi and HyVee. Since they are within a block of each other, I have no problem hitting them both. :) First Aldi for produce: 5 packs Strawberries @$.99 5 peaches @$.25 8 plums @$.25 Olive Oil pan spray @$1.49 pack of sunflower seeds @$.39 Cantaloupe @$1.39 Total spent: $11.47 -- compared to HyVee's prices, I saved $11.61. At HyVee , I was all over the 15% off meat in the bag deal. I got three whole chickens (4 pounds+) @$2.98 4 Powerade @$.49 (normally $1.29) 1 gallon of milk @$2.97 (I think it's expensive, but it didn't make sense to hit yet another store....) and one Kandy Lemondrop melon for $2 - they were sampling it and WOW~ way yummy! I spent $16.00 and saved $13.17 My savings today weren't great - but I wasn't coupon shopping today ( gasp~!! ) Simply working the sales specials and planning on more super cheap jam for the family. $75 budget for the week: -$11.47 from Aldi $16 from HyVee $27.47 for the week, $47...
