My Meijer Trip

So in the end I spent $1.21 on $50 worth of groceries! I kept a tally last year of how much I spent and saved between Meijer and Kroger- we spent $1,518 and saved $1,813! It is truly amazing how much you can save! What awesome deals did you score this week?

  1. Praise God! I hadn't thought to keep track of savings like that! Are you doing it for this year?

  2. Mrs Scotsman- for this particular transaction I did the Hamburger Helper and Betty Crocker transactions and the other ones had printable coupons so that I got the items for free. (The candy I had 2 BOGO free q (coupons)).

    As for the $ saved over the entire year- I stockpile, but items that we always use when they are at an amazing price so that when I need say- mustard- I don't have to go out and buy it at full price because I bought it earlier in the year.

  3. Celia- I wasn't going to track savings this year (but I think I will now since I'm blogging on saving money)
