I love this time of year. It's when the local growing season makes (most) produce prices drop. Now, the cauliflower price I paid today about made me have a seizure in the middle of the produce aisle, but the strawberries....ahh, can't beat that price unless you grow them yourself.
So, the little kids are off for a slumber party with Grandma and the big kids (that also includes Me and Chris) are having a homemade pizza, pop, chocolate chip cookie and movie night.

That IS a great deal on your strawberries!! I love this time of year - fresh fruit is such a good deal!!
oh to live in a state that has winCo... or a Trader Joes...Or bulk food anywhere...
I noticed you have had a higher total than your usual 60 bucks these last few weeks. Is your belt loosening a little bit? I hope so!!
Donna,
Yeah, I've had a little padding the last few weeks which has been really nice but life will be back to normal by next week.
I also wish I could shop where they sell bulk foods. But for now, I am happy to of found an Aldis just 40 miles away
I am very excited to have finally met my grocery cutting goal. I came under budget this week! Yeah! We have one week left of the month to fully meet our goal. I am determined to do it!
Hi Gayle...i have a question about your homemade laundry soap. i recently made my 1st batch a few days ago (5 gallon bucket) and i love it; however, i just found out we are going to be out of town for a couple of weeks and i was wanting to find out what the shelf life of the detergent is?
Hi Amanda,
I always make a double batch and it takes me about 2 months to use it up. I would think the shelf like is pretty long since there really isn't anything in it that can go bad or grow fungus or anything.
Great deals once again! Thanks for hosting!

Hi Gayle, I am relatively new here and I love your tips, it's really helped me in my own shopping! I was wondering tho after looking at your whole chicken, do you have a sams or cost-co or a warehouse club near you? Most of the time if you go with a friend that already has a membership you can get in for free as long as they pay and you can give them the cash. I bought a 2-pack of whole chickens last weekend for about 7 bucks.
