Grocery Cart Sundays
I don't know why, but I love to read what other bloggers are buying at the grocery store.
Yeah. I guess you could say I'm obsessed with food ... but I 'think' I have a healthy relationship with it ;-)
So, with that said, I thought, what the heck, I'll try to share my weekly grocery trips ... and if everything is going according to plan, you would even get a picture or two ... but of course, things don't always go as planned ... and again, this was one of those weeks with NO pictures :-(
A bonus for me to share weekly is to keep my grocery budget in check (hopefully!)
So. I did a stop at Publix Friday after work and spent $88.03 and THEN at the last minute later that evening, the Boy and I hit up Winn Dixie ... and spent $63.49. Oh. Then Sunday we had the now ex-boyfriend over for breakfast and I promised turkey bacon ... didn't have any stashed in the freezer so had to make ANOTHER run to Winn Dixie and hit the motherload of marked down meat ... $89.51 BUT there was like $40 in coupons on the meat ... Nothing like ending the month on a high note, and going in to a new month on the same note!
Here's what I bought ... check back later for the Menu Plan to see how I plan to use some of the this food ...
Publix was bad in that I bought stuff that was NOT on my list and then forgot a few things as well ... crumb
2 bottles of Dole pineapple juice $2.00 each and an additional $1 off each bottle
4 bottles of Bolthouse Farms Protein drinks (Hubby and Boy) B1G1F so $2.99 for 2 bottles
2 containers sour cream B1G1F $2.49 for both
gallon of 2% milk $3.45
cilantro $.99
4 bags of Greenline Green Beans B1G1F $2.99 for 2 bags
2 pkgs of salami $4.49 each
deli dressing (sub dressing) $3.29
2 bags of turkey meatballs B1G1F $4.99 for 2

Then ... the Boy and I decided to run down the street to watch the Halloween contest but figured we needed to eat first ... so off we went to Winn Dixie!
pkg of crackers $2.65
wings $5.16

9 pk of Coors lite $11.50
Grand total $63.49. Ugh.
Then Sunday, what should have been a $10 stop, at the most:
2 pks of english muffins $4.29 for both

ground pork $5.34 and $2 off
2 pkgs of thin cut boneless chicken breast $7.19 plus $3 off and $6.16 plus $3 off (cooked one already for lunch protein)
2 pkgs of chicken burgers $4.99 each less $2 each
4 pks of ground chicken $3.99 each less $1.50 each (i see lettuce wraps coming!)
2 turkey bacons $2.99 each
dozen eggs $4.49 (good grief)
bag of clementines $5.95
2 bottles of almond milk (the better stuff) $3 each (I was so excited, this has been running $5.99 each)
orange juice $4.49
Grand total $89.51 ... starting off the month on a good foot ... IF you remember I just got a bunch of protein ... I am thankful for a new month and guess what ... I'm going to try doing Whole30 again ... felt like crap the past few weekends from b e e r ... I know that's bad for me ;-)
How's your grocery budget coming along?
