$25 Grocery Challenge

Ok you caught me! I'm just no good at updating my blog so i'm hoping to get Hastings on a better nap schedule to allow some time for regular posting.

My $25 grocery challenge is still going strong. Starting this week I'll be making shopping trips on Wednesdays (instead of Sundays) for two reasons: 1) After church there is just no time to shop before we need to get little bit up the mountain for her nap , and 2) The publix penny coupon now comes out on Wednesdays. So look for my weekly totals each Wednesday afternoon!


Last week I scored

a 6lb pork loin

2 Tonys Pizzas

1 pint of International Delight Coffee Creamer

10 jars of beech-nut baby food

6 twelve packs of pepsi products

A 6 pack of Scott paper towels

2 Tide liquid detergents

2 mega packs of diapers

2 Old Spice deodorants

1 secret deodorant and a Clairol hair color (you'll find out what color soon)

All for $26.52 out of pocket

What did I do with that 6lb pork loin? Check back soon for a delicious (and cheap) crock pot recipe that will leave you with lots of leftovers!!!
