First was Fred Meyer where I scored lots of clearance apples! I spent $17.29 on food.
$1.50 each - 2# packages of brown sugar
$0.89 - ketchup
$7.00 - about 20 pounds of clearance apples!
$1.88 - 18 eggs
$0.64/lb - bananas
On Thursday I had to visit the Dollar Store to get birthday balloons. There is a Grocery Outlet next door so I stopped there, too. I spent $23.21 on food at the Grocery Outlet.
$0.39 each - mac'n'cheese
$1.49 - 3# bag of onions
3/$1.00 - 7 oz pasta
$0.33 each - organic strawberry yogurt cups
$0.33 each - vanilla yogurt cups (my kids' favorite)
$0.20 each - raspberry dannon yogurt cups
$0.10 each - string cheese
$0.99 - large greek yogurt
$0.79 each - olives
I picked up a few things at the Dollar Store, too. And I had a late night stop at Fred Meyer for ginger that I needed for a recipe. Between these two stores I spent $22.23.
$2.50 - Doritos (one bag not pictured)
$1.49 - hummus on clearance
$1.25 - sour cream
$2.00 each - ginger
$3.49 - lunchmeat
$1.00 - mustard
$1.00 - syrup
$1.00 - whipped topping
$1.00 each - pepperoni
I had a final trip to Fred Meyer on the morning of DD#2's birthday party to pick up party snacks. I'm not counting her cake as part of our grocery budget because it's more of a gift/birthday expense, but I'm counting the other food because it's all stuff I would buy otherwise. I spent $31.33. EEP!
$2.50 each - ice cream
$1.79 - organic whole milk yogurt
$2.50 - Ritz crackers
$2.00 each - Wheat Thins & Better Cheddars
$8.49 - veggie tray on clearance - a total splurge, but I was REALLY low on time
$2.99 each (MC $1/2) = $2.49 each = Stacy's Pita Chips (only one pictured)
$2.99 - bacon
$0.79 each - cucumbers (not pictured)
Our milk delivery was $11.16 & I bought a dozen eggs from my friend for $2.00 this week.
Total grocery cost for week 45: $107.22
Total grocer cost to date 2013: $4,578.97
Average Per week: $101.75
Cash is pretty tight just now for a variety of reasons so I hope to keep my grocery costs quite low for the next couple of weeks. I might be tempted by Thanksgiving deals so I'll have to resist stocking up too much!
