YIKES!
I have so little left and still 10 days to the month!!
It's a good thing I know we have a house full of food, LOL! Other than milk and some fresh fruit -- I think we are good to go! I kind of went overboard today with the donation options...and know I took 25% of my budget right off the top for the Halloween Snack clearance. I wonder if I can hold off until December to check the Cub Foods East Madison store closing sale......?

**I DID get a Catalina today about ther Black Friday Gift Card Offer - spend $100 (in certain cards) and get $15 off your next groceries visit! (More on that tomorrow!)

How did you do today? What deals did you score?

  2. Great Job Tara!
    As for your issue wit your over charge, call your store and ask for customer service. If you take your receipt in, they should credit/refund you
