So far today, I’ve spent $17.xx and this is what I’ve gotten:
12 cans of Hunts tomatoes (FYI the whole ones have the least amount of sodium) for 20 cents per can
6 32 oz cartons of College Inn Broth for 40 cents each (FYI – Thai Coconut Curry has 1,010 mg of sodium per serving!!!!)
6 12 oz bags of nestle chocolate chips for 75 cents each
2 8 pks of coke for $6
2 4lb pkgs of chix leg quarters for 80 cents – was really $4.80 total but used them $2 off coupons!
2 3.4lb bags of sugar for 95 cents each
Woohoo. And actually, this was all free as it was paid for with my Visa GC.
While I was at the 2nd store getting more tomatoes, was looking for more of the books for the coupons on broth and found some other great ones, $1 off Kraft 2% cheese, 75 cents off propel, and the B1G1F Dannon Frusion single serving bottles. When I was picking up the sodas, saw the little hang tags on 2 ltr bottles for family pizza night, coupons are: free movie rental with rental of another @ Blockbuster, 55 cents off sargento cheese, $1 off 2 Bridgford pepperoni, $1 off 3 2 ltrs of coke, $1 off any 7 or 12” mama marys pizza crust and 55 cents off purchase of 2 Cento pizza sauce items. They all expire pretty quickly in November though!
Rice Cooker - Hard Boiled Eggs
One of the things I picked up at Costco was a new Rice Cooker. The one I have, well, I gave that to the Boy when he went away to college (so he could make his macaroni and cheese), not to mention, it was small as heck, like mini size! So, I figured, you know, Hubby likes to make rice occasionally. The Boy makes brown rice in the microwave every other day and leaves the bubbly residue behind for ME to find when I go to heat something up (I hate a dirty microwave, totally wigs me out and sends me running for the windex!) ... so I grabbed the rice cooker ($29.95), a 10 pound bag of organic brown rice and a 20 pound bag of Basmati rice. I'm asking myself now, a whole week later, what the hell am I going to do with 20 pounds of Basmati rice? Anyways. Then I was reading the recipe booklet that came along with the cooker. They had one recipe that said to add the eggs, unshelled, to the steamer basket. Ok. That made me re-read it a few times. Unshelled? Did they mean out of the shell?...
