Grocery Cart Sundays
It's been a while since I've shared a Grocery Cart Sunday breakdown ... partly because I haven't been shopping that much and partly because I've been BUSY ... but since this last week was a spectacular (NOT) week, I figured, I had time so why not type it all up ...
Pictures? Uhm, sure there are a few here!
So. It all started on Sunday. EASTER Sunday, I might add. I was home. Alone. And just felt like crap. Migraine headache (as in, toss my cookies when I got up out of bed first thing that morning and there was NO booze for 36 hours prior to this!) and weak and just ick. I cancelled my plan to go over to some friends for dinner as Hubby was out of town, Princess was working and the Boy was with his girlfriend.
All I wanted was some food to have for that night and the week ahead. I just had a bad feeling, that's all ...
So off I went ...
They were open on Easter!
2 pkgs of frozen waffles (one GF and one blueberry) $1.99 each
4 pk box of frozen Chicken Chili Lime burgers $3.49 (uhm, I've heard good reviews, have not tried yet)
2 bags of veggie stir fried rice $2.29
bag of frozen mango chunks $2.99
bag of roasted plantain chips $1.69 (oh so much better than the sweet chips, now I know!)
large bottle of olive oil $7.9
bag of frozen chicken breast $6.99
32 oz bottle of pure cranberry juice $2.99

2 pkgs of sliced mushrooms $1.99 each
Grand total $72.05 ahem. I ate the plaintain chips, green beans, 1 pkg of mushrooms, the ham, salad and some of the juice :-(
Then Thursday night, I swung by:

Then along came Saturday, *God Bless Saturday* (bonus point if you can name who sings that BEFORE you click on the link!) I was going to see my dad ...
How could I resist? It's not a new store, but they just did a major addition to the store and made it a SUPER WALMART .... I always get sucked in there AND I need to remember to scan the receipt for the Savings Catcher ... there was a TON of marked down meat and well, I'm low but again, I probably over did it yet again. Ready?
