This Week's Grocery Shopping


In my never ending quest to save money, I did a little grocery shopping today at Super Target! Suffice it to say that it is now my new favorite store!! I got all that you see in the picture for $102.00 and used $59.00 worth of coupons and got $10.00 back in Target gift cards for buying the Quaker products. The best coupons I found for Target are on http://www.hotcouponworld.com! They have meat coupons for Sutton&Dodge meat at Super Target for $2/1. So I bought 5 packages of steaks for $2.50 (that's for ALL 5 packages!) and 5 boneless chuck roasts for less than $15.00 (again for all of them). I used coupons for almost everything! So, this week, I have met my goal of feeding my family for about $100.00/week.
Tonight Ben grilled the steaks, Bailey roasted the potatoes with rosemary, and we used the rosemary bread (all pictured and bought today) and we concluded that the entire meal was $4.00 and my niece was here so eight of us ate....comes to 50 cents a piece for dinner! Can't beat that and we ate steak!
I have noticed that so many of my friends are beginning to use coupons as well. How are y'all doing?

Great job! You can really do well saving for such a large family. I wish we had a super Target, but even the regular Target has some good deals with some of the coupons. I stocked up on Huggies last week at Walgreens. Never did the math but they were cheap! Isn't it fun?!
