I did pretty good at Glen’s today even though I didn’t plan on getting much.
I bought this all on sale, no coupons.
4 boxes of Mueller’s pasta – $1.69, on sale for $0.99 each
4 cans of Hunt’s Tomato Sauce – $1.79, on sale 4/$5
Brach’s Jelly Beans – $1.99 –> My insurance policy for the next pregnancy. The diabetes test SUCKS! I can eat 18 jelly beans and not have to mess with the stupid fizzy super-sweet pop. Thus, the jelly beans :).
9 cans Dole Pineapple (various shapes) – $1.69, on sale for $0.89 each
6 cans Dole Mandarin Oranges – $1.59, on sale for $0.89 each, PLUS I got two $0.75 OYNO catalinas, making them $0.64 each! I wish I had the Dole canned fruit coupons. This could have been even sweeter!
6 cans corn – $0.84, on sale 2/$1
Total value – $45.40
Total sale price – $27.30
Savings – 40%
And this puts me under my goal of $75 a week on food. First time in a long time (about a month) that I’ve been able to do that. Yippee!
