Gratefully Becca told me of the great sale going on at King Soopers. I didn't get their ad this week so I wasn't planning on going. Boy, would I have missed out. I went through the line 3 times. I bought 108 items for $83. That is 76.8 cents per item. Not bad considering that includes 6 gallons of milk, produce, bread, & day old cupcakes (because the kids were amazing). If you take all of that out. I got 90 items for $50.70. That averages out to 56 cents per item. By "item" I mean: 48 oz crisco canola oil, betty crocker muffin mix, french's mustard, 32 oz gatorade, bc scalloped potatoes, goldfish crackers, hormel chili, clorox wipes, granola bars, breyers ice cream, eggo waffles, even spam, & much, much more. Not too shabby. Now, if only I could find a place to put all of this stuff!!
Yeah, I lead a pretty exciting life - I blog about grocery shopping.

We Belong
heard at our house
- A: "Where is the table to the Thanksgiving toy?" E: "Over here by bookshelf." A: "You're lyin', E. It's not here." E: "I not a lion, I Liza! I not a lion, A!"
- The kids just asked I was going as for Halloween M: "The Mama." A: "You're going as Obama? So cool! Are people going to vote for you?" Ummm...doubtful. I guess the fact that we voted today has got him in a great political mindset, however the sign in our yard says we support the other guy. :)
- While learning about talents in Primary. D: "Who has a talent?" A: "Everyone. Well, except people in Germany. They don't even know what that word means."
- A: "I want to be like Batman because he is a hero." M: "Oh, how do you know he's a hero? What makes him one?" A: "Because he has a cape." M: "Oh." A: "And don't forget he also has a mask." Then we talked about what makes a real hero.

Yeah, Cheryl, but would you rather blog about not buying grocieries?
What???? Serious???? I'M ON THE JOB.
Did you notice? The sale is continuing this week. Go spend and save some more.
Too bad I don't have a big freezer...well, bigger than my one in Tallinn. we could only fit one package of meat and one bag of frozen veggies in there...and that was only after we defrosted it. Forget ice cream.
Wow - too bad we don't have a King Soopers or whatever it is. I love saving money too.
Btw- GO HAWKS!
you're fun. : )
I blogged about grocery shopping too! Bargain hunters unite!
