I hate to sound like a Broken record, but I would hate for people to loose money. Rite aid reward bucks go away the end of the year, they do not roll over. I am not using reward deals this week and I didn't use them last week. I try to roll my dollars over with things we need that have coupon matchups too. I have scored necessities for really low prices. There isn't any real bargains this week.

I am going to Bartells this week instead of rite aid. *** is a stock up price. Remember to be polite and done clear the shelves. Haha. . There are extreme coyponers that clear the shelves. That is just plain rude unless there are only a few left. There are other people that would like a bargain too is my opinion.
I am not extreme Couponing , nor am I hoarding. Stocking is about buying at the lowest price and eating it at the highest price. It's not I unlike people that play the stock market. They want to buy low and sell high. It's also not unlike our grandmothers that canned the fresh crop from the farm to carry them through the winter.
Yesterday I made taco meat and a meatloaf. We had a pork tenderloin for dinner last night, and we will have meat loaf tonight.
Ok, I have a question for you. I remember not liking a brand of tuna. I just don't remember what brand we didn't like. Tuna is on sale really cheap all over. I don't want to buy the brand we didn't like.

Saturday
We went shopping yesterday. Took baby with is. I love those carts where the kids can "drive" . I wish those cars had open roofs like some of the SUVs. You could see better what the kids are doing. Grandpa took her for a ride around the store so I could get the shopping done. I somewhat planned my trip, but there were more sale that weren't in the ad. I think because the ads were laced with booze ads because of the holiday. They had the decorated sugar cookies to bake for a buck.( SAFEWAYS)
I did not buy the pork shoulder at QFC because it was huge and I didn't want to buy so much when I had never cooked a pork shoulder before. I did get a pork tenderloin at SAFEWAYS with a dollar off coupon and hamburger for three dollars a pound. I would have rather had nine percent for three dollars a pound, but haven't found it. Twenty percent makes for better meatloaf. I use a meatloaf pan so that a lot of the grease drips off into a catch pan.
Berries were a good price at QFC. I wound up getting one bag full of things at each store and mostly meat. Lettuce was really high priced and the tomatoes looked bad. We have a lot of fruit and frozen vegetables.
The Betty Crocker site has a lot of recipes for things that were hits for the year on review. Some of them sound like really good dinners. I did find in looking at the ads chicken breast in bulk for two bucks a pound. More course they are not toting the origin of the chicken. And artichoke hearts for 2/5. With those prices , you could make the woman's day recipe for artichoke stuffed chicken breasts and still stay close to a five dollar mark. Close enough to average and make it.
I made split pea soup the other day and the peas never got soft. The consensus is that my split peas are old. I didn't know that split peas could get old. I guess they are not a candidate for bulk unless you use them a lot. We go on spurts. I probably should have made them more often because I can make them vegetarian. Last I saw them, they were .69 a pound at grocery outlet. It still makes for a cheap meal that is good for a cold evening . If I make it vegetarian I augment it with cheese and sourdough bread. The woman's day recipe had bacon on top. That would work with turkey bacon and regular bacon. The woman's day ( jan) also has a recipe for beans and tomatoes, although it hear that beans don't cook well when cooked with tomatoes. I think you have to cook the beans first. You can cook beans in the pressure cooker, but so far I have been chicken to try. I have cooked split peas in the pressure cooker.
I will post the Fred Meyers and rite aid ads later or tomorrow. The rite aid rewards do NOT roll over, so I am not buying anything with a reward this week, and didn't last week. I did get some really good buys using coupons and up rewards.

Finally Friday
It's been a busy week even though we didn't have to work but one day. I made split pea soup yesterday before I went to work. The split peas never got soft. I guess that I should use them up sooner next time. I think they must be old. I doesn't realize that split peas could get old.
I got the new woman's day magazine on my reader. There are week night dinners that are supposed to be thrifty. Some are, and they appear that they will taste good too. I got the split pea soup recipe from the article. If the peas had softened, ot would be a good hearty soup.
One of the recipes is a artichoke stuffed chicken breast. The cost os listed at 1.25 per serving. I asked woman's day how , when boneless, skinless chicken breast is 3.50 a pound, and 9 ounces of artichoke hearts is over three dollars, it could cost 1.25 a serving. Theor answer is that the price is a average of the cost in different parts of the country,. I would really love to know how much artichoke hearts and boneless, skinless chicken breast costs in other parts of the country. ( not the Pacific Northwest). I'm thinking if you found chicken for a dollar a pound and boned the breast yourself and bought the artichoke hearts at Costco it might come in at 1.25. It would be a recipe that would be on the higher end of the budget, but could be balanced with an breakfast for dinner night. I would serve it with rice and a green vegetable like green beans or asparagus would be wonderful if it was on season, or a mixed vegetable stir fry ( like broccoli, carrots and cauliflower. ) you can still get those for a buck a pound.
I write thos blog from the perspective , food price wise, of my experiences in the Seattle area. I know that prices vary from state to state and the shopping matrix is different depending on the city people live in. We are lucky,enough to have four chain stores and a Costco within a reasonable distance from the house. Other people, I hear don't have as many stores in their comfort zone. The principles of 1/2 price shopping still work, they are just different 1/2 prices. If there is no large store near you, then I would consider car pooling with a friend or neigh our or getting the ad mailed to you or look it up on the Internet of stores on a neighbourhood town that os a little larger. Wait till there os a good sale to make ot worth your while and make a trip to stock up. Buy the specials and the perishables on a weekly basis at the smaller stores near you, you are still supporting your local stores, but supplementing with sale chain store prices. Our local IGA sometimes has good buys and they make sandwiches to die for, far better than the chain store deli!
The bottom line is always the same. You will be better off if you don't just buy what you want regardless of the price. know your prices of the things that you buy on a regular basis. For most of us, that list is small. if something is too high of a price, substitute it for something at a lower proce. When I can't find yogurt at a reasonable proce with a coupon, I buy cottage cheese. Add a little fruit and I still have calcium rich breakfast.
If you can't remember prices in your head, keep a little notebook or file,card on your purse or glove box to refer to. A little prep before you shop can result in a huge savings at the checkouts. I average at least 46 percent on the sales slip. That doesn't reflect the true savings over the average persons bill.
I have a goal to save the property taxes out of our budget this year. No small feat, but without a goal, nothing happens with me. I have to make myself a list of thongs to do each day, or I puts and things get done, but they are so random, you can't really see what was done. LOL

Terrific Thursday
All that work, and it's all over. I really enjoyed being with friends and family and getting to taste foods that I only get once a year. Our family has great ethnic diversity and the cultural food differences make for an amazing buffet spread!
Back to reality. It is possible to eat well on the USDA thrifty budget. That is what snap, or food stamps are based on. If you can learn to shop to make that happen, it is really easy to augment your budget to dot what you do have. Adding a few luxury items when you have more money still affords you savings to use elsewhere in your budget to enrich your life .
The basic mantra is never pay full price, my mother used to call it top dollar. It is possible if you are not discriminating to pay more than retail for your food. You are better off paying less for consumables and more for appliances that make your life easier. If it is easier to cook from scratch, you will be more likely to do it. It's the snowball effect. A good food processor is worth it's weight in gold-- well maybe not with the price of gold. LOL. A kitchen aid mixer pays for itself in savings. It's a once in a lifetime purchase. Mine came with a grinding attachment. Grinding your own hamburger can save a lot and afford you the luxury of knowing just what is on your burger. A good crock pot is another appliance that is well worth the expense. I keep hearing the term, unipurpose. The crockpot is one appliance that uni-purpose or not, is well worth the expense to get a good one. Ditto a coffee pot. the alternative of lots a bucks coffee would pay for a pot on short order. Pardon the pun! Being able to take a few minutes in the morning and have dinner ready at the end of a hard day is well worth it. If you don't resort to ordering in or going out for dinner, it pays for itself on one dinner!
This week the stores are still in sock it to me it's holiday mode. It is their attitude that everyone splurges during the holiday and bargains are few and far between. Fortunately, I have enough food to refrain from going to the store and I have still maintained my average of twenty dollars a week per adult. Buy when it is low priced, and eat when it is higher priced. Buy perishable in season and at the lowest price you can find for quality. Buy the lowest price meat for the week, buy enough for a meal ( or two) per week for a month. batch cook it and freeze in portion controlled meal bags.
It's freezer cooking with a reality check.
Pork shoulder, pork loin, whole chickens, hamburger, sausage, beef roast are all good candidates for batch cooking.
Guess that is all for today.

Merry Christmas Eve
Merry Christmas Eve
Someone hacked onto my e mail and sent a cruise ship advertisement to my friends and family off my e mail list. I did notice, that they MISSED adding the Edmonds PD LOL.
Totally missed yesterday. Life was too hectic. The girls are home from school and with doctors and business it just didn't happen.
A non traditional desert for Christmas is brownie sundaes. Layer a brownie, ice cream whip cream and crushed candy canes or chocolate syrup.
Chocolate syrup
1 cup heavy cream
2 T corn syrup
12 ounces chocolate, semi sweet
2 tsp vanilla extract
1) in a saucepan, combine cream and syrup. Bring to a boil over medium heat.
2) remove from heat stir in chocolate. Stir in vanilla.
3) serve or store on a jar and let cool completely before placing in fridge. Be careful pouring hot things in jars. Jar should be at least room temp.
I made grandmas apple cake. It worked fine. Apparently fake sugar does not always work on all baking situations. I made lemon pound cakes. They fell flat! I don't know of ot was the tin pans, or the sour cream that came from Costco, so it was a denser consistency. Baking is not my forte.
I'm bringing fruit salad to Christmas Eve. Truly a splurge and definitely not a part of the USDA stats.
Christmas only comes once a year, right?!????
I hope you and yours have a wonderful Christmas!!!

Finally Friday, and it is snowing.
It's snowing, thank God, not for long according to the weather people. I am done with shopping and just need to shovel out our mess since I haven't been home much the last week and do some baking. A few packages to deliver and one to wrap. Thos os the first time my granddaughter has seen snow. It ought to be fun.
There are coupons matches on coupon connections , it's up and running. One is for meat balls at SAFEWAYS for 1.50 for 14 ounces. I am not sure about what those would taste like, but at that price we wouldn't be out much of they are bad. LOL Top foods has frozen veggies for a buck a pound.
All of your rewards at rite aid expire at the end of the year. I need to spend three dollars. I am hoping that they will have some decent buys on things we need. We did well the last two trips.
On another note, my husband and I worked yesterday. A couple came in, they bought a pocket knife and a butter dish. That was their presents to each other. I wrapped them on clean newsprint paper like we do all the things that we sell. It was their wrapping paper. Sometimes, I think we loose track of the real meaning of Christmas and it gets lost with the commercialism. We really scaled back this year, I put up few decorations, mostly because of little children in the house that don't understand yet that decorations are not toys. LOL and because I have been too sick too long.
A group I belong to has been trying to help a homeless family that just got housing. We made Christmas, but also have rounded up things for housekeeping. I have had so much joy seeing Christmas come together for a family that couldn't be more deserving of a nice Christmas.
I think I for the first time in years have looked at Christmas with a new perspective.

That's about it. I did a real quick scope this morning. Be sure to look at match ups and cross off anything cheaper elsewhere. Pick the two best stores, get in and get out. I am not seeing a lot of bargains as usual for a holiday shopping trip. Sausage is actually over priced, especially when they are trying to make it look like a bargain with free eggs. Sausage should be close to two dollars a pound, not 3.50! LOL. If it goes much higher, well be making our own!
Don't forget batteries of what you bought for Christmas takes them! The dollar store os not a good place to buy batteries. It's a time when cheaper is not better. Duracell guarantees that if you ruin a device because one of their batteries leaks, they will replace the device.
Just a FYI

That's about it. I did a real quick scope this morning. Be sure to look at match ups and cross off anything cheaper elsewhere. Pick the two best stores, get in and get out. I am not seeing a lot of bargains as usual for a holiday shopping trip. Sausage is actually over priced, especially when they are trying to make it look like a bargain with free eggs. Sausage should be close to two dollars a pound, not 3.50! LOL. If it goes much higher, well be making our own!
Don't forget batteries of what you bought for Christmas takes them! The dollar store os not a good place to buy batteries. It's a time when cheaper is not better. Duracell guarantees that if you ruin a device because one of their batteries leaks, they will replace the device.
Just a FYI

Wicked Wednesday
Well, the mail person is back to his or her ways, no ads yet. I checked coupon connections last week and found no update. I googled coupon matchups, Seattle and got another matchup site.
When I make meal plans, I use a template or outline to insure variety in our meals. Eating a variety of things gives us a balance of nutrition.
My outline or matrix is
2 beef
2 chicken or pork
2 vegetarian
1 fish or shellfish
I try to work in the fresh veggies and other perishable items that were on sale that week, finding the lowest prices in our area. Every section of the country has different lowest prices. If you live in a small town, supplementing your pantry with a trip to the larger town with cheaper prices if possible will help your situation.
Frittata ( vegetarian)
8 eggs, beaten
1 cup mushrooms, sliced
1 cup broccoli, chopped
1/2 cup shredded cheese
1/4 cup chopped onion
1/4 cup green pepper, chopped
1/4 cup Parmesan or other hard cheese, grated
Salt and pepper
Combine ingredients
Place in greased baking dish
Bake at 350 20-25 minutes or until ot tests done. ( knife inserted in center comes out clean. )
I also make impossible pie with cheese when I want an inexpensive dinner. Add a field green and fruit salad with a fruit vinaigrette.
Mac and cheese is a hit at our house for vegetarian as well as a vegetable stir fry.

Terrific Tuesday
This is the wonderful week that I don't have to cook for four days on a row! Yeah. I love cooking, but it's nice to have a break once on a while, and I love being out with friends and family.
I made two chickens , very large chickens on Sunday. I don't think I would do it again in the small oven. I needed to use two separate pans and leave a lot more air circulating around them. I wound up microwaving them for another twenty minutes to get them done. I have dinner premade for Wednesday and Thursday.
There is something really comforting about chicken pot pie on a cold day. We love buffalo chicken pizza. When I shopped, I got a honey Dijon mustard pork tenderloin. There are coupons out there for them.
green bean salad
2 cup fresh green beans, cut into two inch pieces, blanched crisp tender.
1/2 cup cucumber, cut in half, seeded, and cut into semi rounds slices
1 small red pepper, cut into thin strips.
Sliced red onion
Dressing
2 T cream cheese! softened
1 T. Milk
1 T vinegar
2 tsp sugar
Salt and pepper.
Mix salad ingredients. Mix dressing ingredients. Toss.
Serves 2
Raspberry salad
Field greens, or torn romaine
Diced pear
Raspberries
Toasted pecans, optional
Dried cranberries
Raspberry vinaigrette
Notes:
Designer lettuce is cheapest at Costco.
Pears are a buck a pound these days
Raspberries were also on sale.
I always keep dried cranberries, they are a special treat in my oatmeal, or on cookies instead of raisens. Also, you can use them in stuffing or rice to go with poultry. Yum!
One of the ways that you can save money on the grocery bill is to make it a point mid week to survey the fridge and use up the little odds and ends hiding in there. When the Dijon mustard jar is almost completely done, make a oil and vinegar dressing right in the jar. Cover the jar and shake it.
That's all for today.
The ads come out today, but I have a full day, probably Tommorrow.

Trip to Fred Meyers and Rite Aid/ other stuff
We made the trek to the next town and went to Rite Aid and Fred Meyers. I really scored at Rite Aid.
I usually don't buy soda except at holiday time. We like root beer. When I was a child, that's the only soda my dad would allow in the house. A special treat was root beer float. I got root beer for .10 a two liter bottle. With up rewards, four pair of panties were less than five bucks including tax.
On to Fred Meyers. Christmas oranges were a good price, and flour was on sale. Holidays are a good time to stock baking supplies. I opened my last back up org flour, so I picked some more up. Jello products were a buck. lotts of bucks coffee makes a lemon pound cake. The recipe for the wanta be is on the Internet. My daughter and I made ot last year. We figured we made about 212.00 an hour making it at home instead of. Using it at That other place. Milk was 1.25 a half gallon. Green beans were .50. Coffee pods were on sale and I had coupons. I get two cups from a pod and it's really convenient for company.
Yesterday we went out to a house party. We had a wonder dinner of a stuffed chicken breast with cheese and Canadian bacon, rice, salad, and green beans with almonds and rolls. Desert was yummy caramel flan, and a pistatisio desert.
You can have some convenience food when you budget and get most of what you buy for 1/2 price. I am still running about sixty dollars a week, and.building a stock for three adults. I haven't checked the stats from the USDA lately, but considering the increased price of meat and vegetables I don't think we are far off.

No nonsense socks, tights, leggings Bogo1/2. And a 2 dollar up reward. Must buy 2, limit 3 up rewards per household.
Toothpaste products have decent up rewards, check coupon connections for matchups.
I'm not one to buy soda, but it is 4/4 with a 1.00 up reward for the 2 liter bottles. ( net .75).
Quaker granola bats and cranberry juice 2/5 with a 1.00 up reward.

Finally Friday
Finally Friday! it's been a long week. Both of our vehicles are sick and the repair shop is going to have a really good Christmas!?!!! LOL. We really can't complain. Both of them are paid for, and have been cheap transportation.
I digress
On to food.
Christmas baking time. I got cookie mic cheaper than scratch. I do t usually bake a lot. Baking can cost a lot especially when your cookies take special ingredients. Fortunately, baking ingredients are usually on sale this time of the year and if you bake all year, it would be a good time to stock up of you find a bargain.
Rite aid has some baking ingredients buy 15.00 with a five dollar reward. That makes things 33 percent off. Fred Meyer had some good sales too. I have seen butter as low as 1.50.
Betty Crocker has a month long cookie series going on. A cookie a day. I had an aunt that used to bake oodles of cookies at Christmas, all nummy. I don't think even she odd that many variety,
I like creme brûlée , brownies with ice cream and a little chopped peppermint candy is a good Christmas desert. Peppermint ice cream and shortbread cookies is a favorite, chocolate waffles are an inexpensive treat.
Dairy is cheapest at Costco.
I like to balance the heavy meal we all have at holiday time with an easy lighter soup meal.
My mother used to call that giving your stomach a rest. LOl
Guess that's all I have.

Terrific Thursday. : what to do with what you got
SAFEWAYS has whole chickens for .79. And ALBERTSONS has oranges for .88. Sounds like a match made in heaven. It would be my pick for my batch cook for the week. In comparison, SAFEWAYS has a chicken in the deli department for five dollars. It is 30 ounces that is less than two pounds. If it was two pounds it would be 2.50 a pound. or, in other words, you could buy two for ten dollars and have four pounds of chicken. The place of origin is a mystery. For ten dollars, you can have over twelve pounds of raw chicken that you know came from the NW. You are saving over 66 percent. NEVER buy a chicken under three pounds. You are paying too much for bone , you don't eat bone!
Clams are a buck at ALBERTSONS, and milk is 2.59. It might be time for clam chowder.
Note: ALBERTSONS has Colgate toothpaste for .75. I would check coupon connections for a coupon.
SAFEWAYS has sour cream and yogurt on sale. I can usually find a coupon for yogurt.
SAFEWAYS has cream of mushroom soup for .89. That is precisely why I stock. I paid .30 cents last month at Fred Meyers. That is a savings of 66 percent. If you can get most of your food for 2/3 off, you can get three times the food for the same amount you are spending now. now, most of us don't need three times the food, but you can still double your food and save another 1/3 .
There are bargains if you look hard. By taking advantage of the bargains and only buying real food, you can eat better for less. You can't always get 66 percent, but you can average 1/2 if you take advantage of the specials and stock while the price is low. This is not about hoarding, it is about buying low and eating high. It's about being self sufficient.

Terrific Tuesday/ bargain edition
It is Tuesday. Yesterday we braved the cold and went to riteaid and business Costco. There are some things that you can't find at regular Costco. I Scored big time at Rite Aid. I needed two consumable gifts for a round about gift exchange. I had some rite aid bucks . I got fingernail polish for free, great stocking stuffers. Also, when you buy 15.00 worth of baking items, you get five dollars rite aid bucks. I bought a 12.00 bag of m and m's and two cookie mixes that I had a coupon for. I was four cents short,so I bought a bottle of vanilla. The cookie mixes netted .62 each. The whole bill was less than five bucks, including tax.
Peach and blueberry pie.
Peaches can be found on the frozen food case. I found some at grocery outlet, cheaper than fresh last summer.
Crust for 2 crust pie.
Filling
2 T lemon juice
3 cups peaches,
1 cup blueberries
1 cup sugar
2 T tapioca
Pinch of salt
2 T butter
1 egg yolk
Mix together lemon juice and fruit. Add sugar and salt and let stand while you roll out crusts, about
15 minutes. Pour filling into pastry lined crust. Dot with butter. Cover pie with second crust. Paint crust with egg yolk beaten with water. Bake at 425 for 45-50 minutes. NOTE: if peaches are wet, drain them in a colander fore mixing with blueberries.

Monday Madness
Yesterday was go see Santa day. Grandbaby was scared to death. She just sat there with a blank stare! ought to be a good picture. I remember her income at that age screaming bloody murder!
I was able to get a scaled down Christmas decor up and make an apple cake. I have come to the conclusion that you can't use fake sugar for this cake. It still didn't quite resemble grandmas cake.
I found a .25 coupon in Sundays paper for recipe starter. It is .50 at the dollar store. Also, coupons.com has a coupon for BBQ beef in a tub. It os 3.99 ( about 1/2 price) at QFC and the dollar coupon makes it 2.99 -- cheaper than you can scratch cook it with the cost of beef these days.
The USDA predicted that that would happen.
Yesterday we had pork chops over the cranberry stuffing, it was really good.
Rite aid says that they have over 300.00 in up rewards. I was hard pressed to find much for things I would buy. There is fingernail polish for free( a good stocking stuffer) . The 3m temporary hook things are bog1/2 with a 3.00 up reward. This might be a bargain, but can't tell until I get there.
There is a 5.00 up reward when you buy an old navy ,gap, or banana republic gift card. Holiday fleece throws are 2/5. And ice cream is a good buy.
