Our friends son had his 3rd birthday party yesterday…and although I stayed home with the kiddos (Soph is really sick) Steven was able to go and deliver the goods:
A rocket ship and little wooden spaceman…he fits into his little seat to blast off and explore the universe!
a crayon roll made with green cord and Eric Carle ‘Brown Bear Children’
I didn’t get an update on how they were received, but I hope little N-Man loves them!
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:
