Friday Finals – Under Budget Again

I didn’t do much shopping again this week. We still have a freezer full of meat, a cabinet full of food and I really just don’t need many items, but staples like milk and yogurt. Eggs seem like they have gone through the roof lately here, so any good tips where I can get eggs PLEASE let me know. My brother is raising chickens, but it is four hours away. That is a bit too far for me to go get FREE Range farm fresh eggs. I need another plan. Any advice or help would be greatly appreciated.

I spent $2.14 and saved $2.95 on $5.09 worth of yogurt at Tom Thumb this week! Yes I just went to Tom Thumb for yogurt this week. It was such a good deal I couldn’t pass it up.

The guy at my CVS is so nice. I told him I had let my CVS extrabucks expire and asked if I could still use them. He said of course I could, since he knew me so well and I was always in there. My husband was out of vitamins, so I had to pick some up. The Centrum worked out cheaper than buying the CVS brand this time. Plus the vitamins came with $15 worth of coupons inside! 

Altogether I spent $39.64 and saved $34.15 on $73.79

worth of products this week.

Friday Finals Saved on Meat

It is another hot day here in Texas. I have been really busy this week deep cleaning the house and getting all caught upon cutting out my coupons. I was only about a month behind. Now that little face is on a better nap schedule, I am able to get lots of things done while he is sleeping! I have cut his nap time down to two hours a day instead of three hours every two days. He was just getting too much sleep and not tired the next day. I sure was!

I didn’t do very much shopping this week. I still don’t really need that many things. With my stockpile, I could probably go about a month and not need to buy any food. I think we are in diet mode now after our vacation. I don’t like to be hungry on vacation, so we brought lots of snacks and ate well! I will be posting vacation pics this Sunday. Keep your eyes open for a new giveaway starting soon too!

Stop by tomorrow to get all your coupons in one place with Super Coupon Saturday.
