This week was another exceptional week at Publix. Early in the week, I made a quick run to use up a few more Kashi Qs. I don’t have a picture of that shop but it included:
3.13 lbs. of bananas
4 Kashi Frozen Entrees
1 Smart Balance Margarine
1 2 Liter of Soda (Penny Item Replacement)
1 Pack of Doublemint Gum
Total after tax: $2.22 (Value $19.55, savings 93%)
On Thursday, I did the bulk of my shopping for the week, as we had company coming on Friday and staying the weekend.
This picture includes:
Aldi $16.53
Publix $18.73 (Value $96.60, savings 84%)
Kroger $8.89 (Value $34.05, savings 77%)
We also made an HG Hill run that included:
1 8 ct. Hot Dog Buns
2 loaves of Whole Grain Bread
1 ½ loaf of white bread
1 full loaf of white bread
2 lbs. of Purple Potatoes
2 1.75 qt. Containers Mayfield Ice Cream
Total $8.03
Altogether, I spent $54.40 for the week. Because I budgeted another $12 because we had company coming, I actually came in with a $7.60 surplus. That brings my current surplus to about $30. Are you curious why I allotted $12 if I’m running at a surplus? Stop by to read Invasion of the Teenagers.
