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!

Shopping Trip: Major Shopping Week 3/15/10

We bought some new tires online and needed to have them installed, so I made a special trip to Walmart last Friday.  While there, I picked up some things:

After the kids had their nap, we ran out to Lowe's to pick up some compost and some garden seeds.  Since Kroger is right next door...I asked my husband if he cared to go with me so I wouldn't have to go out tomorrow...and he said "sure"!  

Kroger:

This is was a pretty big shopping week for us.  We stockpiled quite a few things.   

Overall we spent $61.21 OOP for grocery items and saved $198.17 (76%).  We've spent $120.26 so far for the month, leaving us almost $80 for the rest of the month for grocery related purchases.

Shopping Trip: Food Lion, Publix 2/20/10

I decided to try another Video Blog (VLOG) and share my shopping trips to Food Lion and Publix.  We found some unadvertised buys at Food Lion which is always fun.  And we went over budget this week.  All is good, since we are also purchasing a few things for OAMC day.  I'm also not going to be purchasing anything at CVS this week.  I just didn't see anything I needed.  So I'm saving the ECBs from last week for another week.  Walgreens has some NADQ's for potting soil, I might use some of my RRs to pick up a couple of bags.  But I haven't decided completely on that yet.  

If you are viewing this from your email update, you'll need to click over to the blog to view the video.  Please rate and leave feedback so I'll know how to improve.  Thanks!

My husband works for a food distributor and checked the price on a 50 lb bag of all purpose flour.  Turns out it's only $11.37 for 50 lbs.  I've been paying between $1.59 - $1.79 for a 5 lb bag of flour.  So we decided to purchase it and buy a large tub to store it.  I've been making our own pizza dough, french bread, yeast rolls and a lot of other food items from scratch to save on the cost of pre-packaged products.  Not only is it cheaper, but it's more healthy since we know what we're putting in the food.  I'm going to venture out and try to make our own flour tortillas one day.  Right now, I'm still a little intimidated, but I'll try it one day.
