I will add more info later but all of the below cost me only $65 OOP...and that does not include the $10 I made at CVS today :)
My trip to Alids:Total OOP: $15
What I got:
-a block of cheddar cheese
-Celery-
-Baking potatoes
-Saltine crackers
-93% ground turkey
-blueberries
-strawberries
-cherries
-Cream of mushroom soup
-refried beans
-sour cream
-bread
***I know some of you shun Aldis, but for certain items, you can save up to 50%. Cheese is only $1.29 for the whole block. If you shred cheese on your own, you save over $1. And all of that fruit? I think this was a great shopping trip!
My trip tp Target: Total OOP: $40 (saved $41)
-6 boxes of Kashi granola bars
-4 boxes of Kashi cereal
-2 pizzas
-boca chix patties
-3 packages of village hearth buns
-2 packages of green beans
-can of corn
-hidden valley ranch
-laughing cow cheese
-boxed cheesy potatoes
-tomato sauce
-2 things of Pace cheesy salsa
-baked beans
-bisquick mix
-2 packages of veggies
-jiffy corn mix
-egg noodles
***The thing you need to do is stock up when things are on sale or at their lowest price. For example, the hamburger buns. They were on sale for $1.99...and are normally almost $4! That is a savings of 50%.
The Kashi granola bars deal went like this:
2 boxes of granola bars @ $2.50 each
-used 2, $1.50 coupons I printed from the internet
-used $1/2 Target coupon
Total: .50 for each box!
Market Pantry pizza:
$2.99
-use $1/off Target coupon
**This are strategies I used to cut my grocery bill cut in half, a 50% savings!
My trip to CVS: Total OOP: $2 (made $10 in ECBs)

-used 2, .25 MQs
CVS brand liners: .89=.89 ECB
