I did go to Safeways today with the blanket coupon my daughters boss so generously gave me. I didn't follow my examples because we already had a lot of what was on that list. I started with the largest dollar items, Adding in my head as I went along. I pick three pounds of ground round, and a pork tenderloin. Just short of 17.00. I went down the isles, comparing prices. Just about everything else was higher than my target prices. I never buy anything that is more than my target price unless we really really, need it. I , realizing that everything was twenty percent off provided I stuck to a 25.99 limi, picked up no sugar added apple sauce for granddaughter, (2.00) . I paid 1.69 for it at Fred Meyers . The net price of it will be 1.60.
Up to 19.00. Six to go. My husband picked blue cheese. That left a few cents short. I added a package of ramen noodles that I use for stirfry without the flavor packet.
25.18 less five dollar coupon made 20.18.
I didn't use any manufacturers coupons. I stuck to protein because it is the most extensive of the food groups. No sugar applesauce is hard to come by at a low price. There is fruit cups and applesauce at the dollar store, but they are full of sugar, anywhere from 16-20 grams of carbs. No child needs that many carbs added to their diet.
