Shopping Trip: Food Lion, Dollar Tree 5/24/10

This week I shopped at Food Lion for the hot dog deal and chicken deal.  I also stumbled upon some frozen fruit at Dollar Tree.

Food Lion

Hot Dogs $1.00 X 8

Whole Chickens $.47/lb x 2

Nesquick Strawberry milk $.50 x 4

2 bunches of bananas $.39/lb

Grapes $.99/lb

Tomatoes $.99/lb

Eggs $.95

Lettuce $1.29

Deli Turkey $4.17

Beer $6.49

Pepperoni $1.85

Garlic $.79

= $42.00 + tax = ?  I didn't realize the hot dogs had a limit of 2.  So I took them back to the customer service desk and we did 3 more transactions so I could buy 1 get 1 free.  It was crazy but the lady was super nice about the whole ordeal. 

Dollar Tree

2 bags 16 oz peaches $1.00 each

2 bags 10 oz blueberries $1.00 each

= $4.00 + tax (I bought other things so I don't know what the Food only OOP was)

I was under budget for the week but OAMC is coming up and I need a few things that I haven't been able to get on sale.  I also didn't do alot of "deal shopping" the last two months, so my stockpile is getting a little thin.  I do mean a little thin, because we have plenty of food to get us through at least another 3 months at least.  I'll probably make an Aldi run to pick up the necessary things for OAMC. 

I was pleasantly surprised to find the frozen fruit at Dollar Tree.  I  learned from my Facebook friends that each Dollar Tree is different and YMMV since every Dollar Tree may or may not have a freezer case. 

Have a great week!
