Okay everyone….hold on to your hats

I went to two grocery stores today and did two transactions at each. I got $272.71 worth of groceries for…….

 

 

 

$21.61

 

 

Which included:

 

28 jugs of Ocean Spray cranberry juice (free, safeway)

12 jugs of light Ocean Spray cranberry juice (free, safeway)

1 box of Quaker granola bars (.96, safeway)

2 jars of Peanut Butter (free, safeway)

5 boxes of Capri Suns (10 in each) (less than $0.65 each box, safeway)

12 bags of Kraft shredded cheese (2 cups each) (less than $0.28 each, albertsons)

3 boxes of Glucerna cereal (free, 1 safeway, 2 albertsons)

1 6-pack of Glucerna shakes (.99, albertsons)

1 gallon of water (.79, albertsons)

2 boxes Planters Big Nut Bars (.67 each, albertsons)

4 boxes of South Beach cereal bars (.67 each, albertsons)

2 boxes Nabisco 100 cal packs (.67 each, albertsons)

1 2-liter Diet Dr. Pepper (free, albertsons)

2 6-packs Jello Pudding (1.57 each..bah, albertsons)

1 18-count box of Always pads (free, albertsons)

4 packs Carl Budding lunch meat (less than $0.38 each, albertsons)

2 cans of Scrubbing Bubbles bathroom cleaner (less than $0.65 each, safeway)

1 overpriced box of bakery cookies for my husband (2.99, safeway)

 

 

PLUS: Safeway gave me $2.50 off my next order (for the Glucerna) and Albertsons gave me $3.00 off my next order for the cheese (I figured that into the cost of each bag)! So I did take those off my total. If I would have had more thinking and planning time (sans kiddos) I could have done a bit better (by a few bucks) but I’m not complaining!!!

 

Here’s a pic..minus the cookiesand bathroom cleaner:
