Last week after returning home from NYC, I was so tired- and the last thing that I felt like doing was putting together my grocery shopping list. I usually go shopping on Fridays because I can’t stand getting to the store after the weekend crowds to find the shelves bare. I definitely encountered some of this yesterday at Superfresh- I was looking for some SUPER CHEAP pies, and alas, there were none to be found.
First I went to Superfresh. I did get some great deals (check out my coupon matchups here). Highlights: veggies $.30/box, frosting $.50/each, brown sugar $.50/each, potatoes for $.45/box.
When I got my total, it came to $40.86. I was a little disappointed that it was so high, though it came down from about $120, but still! I almost didn’t even go to Acme- I really wanted to stick to my $50/week budget and I figured there was no way I could spend so little at Acme.
Let’s just say- I’m really glad I went to Acme afterall! You can see what I got below- my matchups are here. Some highlights: FREE Mentos gum (apparently my Acme doubles do not double coupons), Ragu $.28/jar, Breyer’s Ice Cream $.88, AirWick $.99.
My total at Acme came down from $70 to just $12.22. Not too bad!!
