We did a grocery shopping trip yesterday. I don't usually go to Albertsons because it is hard to get in and put of and they usually don't have enough good buys to warrant the trip.
In did go this week. The buys were better than usual and a lot more of them. Besides, I needed an embossing folder from Hobby Lobby. LOL
To recap the ads...
Apples were .88 a pound and if you bought the bag, there was a buck more off. They had a large variety of hunts pasta sauce and it was a buck. Pasta was .93 on justn4 u at Safeways. And, shrimp was 5 bucks.
On another note, I happened to open two cans of diced tomatoes to make vegetable soup.
One was hagan brand, one was hunts. Both were good. The Hagan brand had less chunks than the hunts one did. Hunts steam the peels,other companies use chemicals to peel their tomatoes.
Chicken was a dollar a pound for nw grown breasts.
I found tortillas for a buck and ice-cream for three dollars that had 17 grams of carbs.
Roast was cheaper than the good hamburger. We will grind our own.
On to the meal plans...
My formula is 2 beef, 2 chicken or pork, 2 vegetarian, and a fish.
I suspect that this will change when the drought prices truly kick in. We will have to adjust accordingly.
1) spaghetti with meatballs, green salad, French bread
2) tacos, refried beans, rice
3) Chicken Breast, baked potato, green beans, salad
4) pork chops, red cabbage, apple sauce
5) Breakfast for Dinner. Scrambled eggs, hash browns, oranges and grapes
6) Mac and cheese, broccoli
7) shrimp stir fry, rice
I would plan the shrimp and the tacos back to back so I made one rice cooker of rice.
Taco seasoning is on a previous post.
Thanks for stopping by
Please share. With a lot of us taking a two percent cut in pay and the prices of groceries going up weekly more of us, unfortunately, might need it.
