Didn't get the pictures I wanted to take today but wanted to share my frugal accomplishment anyway. It was a good day. The end is wearing long though and my kiddos are ready for supper and bed. And I'm ready for bath and a book, and maybe some walking dead with my husband :)
Saved gas by ad matching at WalMart for the Coborn's and County Fair sales.
Got Hunts spaghetti sauce 10/$8 and Bartlett pears .99/lb. 4 Colgate toothpastes at a .25 money maker deal and 2 10 pack's of Capri Sun juice for Sophea's lunch for $2. And the best deal was 5 lbs dehydrated blueberries at $2/lb (right now they are about $8/lb fresh)
Got groceries including stuff to make make your own oatmeal packets instead of buying the expensive oatmeal that we like.
I did overspend the grocery budget by about $50 for this week but I got 1.5 weeks worth of groceries and a lot of the things that I got will last for months and decrease the grocery bill in future weeks. So I feel like I was right on budget.
Asked around on facebook for Senior picture options and had an offer from someone trying to build his portfolio. His pictures are wonderful and he is excited that Ali wants something more creative than standard, so he is giving us an amazing deal! I always say it pays off to do some looking around before making a decision and this is definitely one of those cases.
