Friday Finals

I have not been feeling real well this week. I have been very tired all week. Last night I felt like I got a really good night sleep. I did manage to do some shopping this week. I went way over budget, since two stores had some really good sales. So I may not shop next week.

Tom Thumb had a Mega sale for mix and match buy 8. Tom Thumbs policy is they will only double or triple one like coupon.

I spent $48.26 and saved $70.67 on $118.93 worth of groceries retail. Wow this is my best saving yet a Kroger.

This week I spent $91.65 and saved $118.24 on $209.89 worth of retail groceries. There is more savings if you include the savings on produce from Sprouts, but I don’t include the full price of the item, since it is not listed on the receipt. Due to both stores having great sales this week, I will not be doing very much shopping next week.

Have a great time shopping! How did you do this week? Please share your trips below.
