Grocery Shopping Week in Review
It's been a while since I've shared a grocery trip ... mostly because I haven't been shopping a whole lot! Hubby has been going more often than me and he just doesn't buy a lot ...
We've also not been meal planning OR prepping a whole lot. This cancer stuff has really gotten us all tangled up in our life. Ugh. NOT to mention, I'm also posting more on the new site so make sure you come check that out as well! The Mark and Jan Show!
So, what the heck! I went to see my dad Friday after work, and as always, stopped at Walmart to pick up a few things for him and grabbed a few things for us ...
Quite an understatement.

Total Spent - $171.61

4 pkgs of chicken gravy mix $.98 each (didn't have walmart brand)
bottle of cranberry juice $2.98
4 pk ranch dressing packet $4.52 (anyone guessing yet what I'm making this week??)
Cherry/Cranberry cocktail juice $1.98
roma tomatoes $1.62
3 bags of frozen broccoli florets $1 each (cheaper than the usual large bag I buy)
3 12 oz bags of raw shrimp, peeled and deveined $5.54 each
2 pound bag shredded cheddar cheese $4.22
2 pound bag shredded mozzarella cheese $4.22
6 pound bag of Halo oranges $6.97
1 pound of Castle Head Ham $5.86 (oops that's more than I thought)
2 pkgs of Applegate hot dogs $4.98 each
48 count coffee k pods $14.98
6 pk dr pepper bottles $2.50
2 containers Stax $1.18 each
8 pk pop tarts $3.68

2 bottles eye drops $1.88 each
2 limes $.96
2 lemons $1.00

avocado $1.18
red onion $1.14
small bottle of raspberry lemonade $.96 (I was very thirsty)
giant loaf of wonder bread $2.28
loaf of Sara Lee Artesano Bread $2.26
LOTS of stuff I don't normally buy but as I said above, Hubby's cancer is forcing him to eat a little differently and not necessarily healthier at all times, but it's important that he eats ... so certain things (squishy white bread, gravy) are easier for him to tolerate ...
How's your grocery budget holding up??
