Grocery Haul October 12, 2011

I did this grocery haul a few days ago but I am still so proud of it!  I couldn't wait to go shopping and get all my deals!  When I reviewed the sales paper this past weekend, I saw so many items that I knew I had coupons for.  The prices were great too!  I'm actually all set now as my freezer and fridge are packed.  The only thing that I need to buy is cat food which I forgot to get but I have a $3.00 catalina left over from the shopping trip so I be able to get that for about $2.00.

This week I got $173.67 worth of groceries for $60.89.  That's $112.78 off of retail price!  There were 49 items purchased including:

• Two bottles of V8 V-Fusion Juice
• Six bottles of V8 Splash
• Five jars of Heinz gravy
• Ten cans of Campbell's chicken noodle/tomato soup
• One Glade Air Freshener Spray
• One Glade Home Decor Air Freshener
• Two Glade candles
• Two 12 packs of Angel Soft bath tissue
• One can of Chock Full of Nuts Coffee
• Three boxes of Barilla Whole Grain Penne Pasta
• One box of Emerald Breakfast on the Go (great for work)
• One bag of organic tortilla chips
• One 12 pack of Thomas' English Muffins
• One Perdue Whole Fryer (scored a 4.22 lb bird for $2.07!)
• Five lbs of Broccoli crowns (I blanch and freeze)
• Two containers of Pillsbury Grands biscuits
• One pound of Hotel Bar Butter ($0.99!)
• On dozen Egglands Best Eggs

• Two Bertolli Chicken Parmigiana Dinners
• One container of Friendly's Ice Cream
• Two Cover Girl Blushes
• Two Cover Girl Bronzers (these last four items I got for free and I will sell in my eBay store since I don't wear too much makeup)

I'm tempted to back and get more broccoli only because it's about to go out of season and I love broccoli!  When I blanch and freeze it, it lasts for about 3 months and it tastes so much better than store bought frozen.

I am so very happy with this haul.  I think I'm going to use the whole chicken and make some chicken soup.  I better get busy!
