This was my week to provide soccer treats for my son's team so you'll see those tucked away in my receipts. You'll also see some Kotex in there. I haven't quite convinced my daughter of the virtues of reusable menstrual pads yet. But I found them buy-one-get-one-free so that was nice.

Ooo, since you were not giddy from your own trip, let me share mine finds from my local discount grocer, which BTW, I found due to your fabulous post about them! I found great, cute pens to put into my 6 year old's birthday treat bags for school and his party for just $.20 each. Also going in the bag are snack crackers and cheese that I scored for less than $.10 and cereal bars that were $.19 each. Plus, I bought 2 lugs of pears (14 pounds each) for just $5 each - I will be canning them tonight. All from the discount grocer that I had no idea existed until you showed me the way. Thanks!!
Woohoo! Now THAT is exciting!
I think I'm with your daughter on that one! :)
i am not sure i can be convinced of the virtues of reusable menstrual pads either. sorry! =)
I know this is a touchy subject, but thought you might be interested, have you thought about using an herbal rinse to darken your hair? Sage, or Rosemary? Possible money savings to think about.
I cannot seem to give up my "need" for using freezer bags. I was totally out and getting grumpy about it. Had a rain check for Hefty freezer bags at Krogers--$1.00 a box and they had a 20cent coupon on each box = 130 ea. of gallon and quart size for 6cents each. Originally marked $3.49 a box for 13 (absolutely ridiculous) saved $53.80! Sorry to say that we do not have the stores that you have to get such good deals so I usually shop sales and do coupons. Sure do appreciate all of your thrifty ideas.
Why the Ground Beef? I didn't see anything in your menu that included it. Just curious since your methodology has been not to stock sale items but only buy what you need for the week.
The ground beef was for the Spaghetti.
Great deals - I too like when I get great grocery deals!
Since you mentioned the Kotex thing with your daughter, I'll add my TMI comment :)
I saw your post about reusable pads a few months ago and I braved it. I figured if you were willing to try them, I could too. NEVER thought I would like 'em, but I really do. And I've been using them ever since. Thanks!
I just gave you an award on my blog. Thanks for all your ideas!
