GCC Shopping Round Up

I shopped a little bit later than expected which is why this is getting up so late. Sorry about that if you've been waiting to link up. So, I went into this shopping trip knowing it was going to be more since it's Superbowl Sunday and we'll be eating lots of goodies. But seriously. A box of crackers for $3.50? Wow. My husband also has pneumonia so we've been doing lots of fresh juices to boost his immune system and fight off bacteria along with the antibiotics that he's on. You'll see a larger and more assorted variety of veggies than normal. Chalk that up to "cheaper than another doctor visit". Here's what I got.

Crackers are very expensive here too! We usually buy at our local grocery outlet or buy the "off brand" - but even off brand can be high as well. Being sick always puts our grocery budget over as well!

Gayle: I though I would pass along some info about homemade crackers. On the blog kimberlys-cup she has a cracker recipe that is easy and really good. They taste like cheese its.
