More Grocery Shopping... And Baby Wipes!

Maybe I should just call this the "grocery shopping blog". lol ;) After all, I do talk a LOT about my adventures in grocery shopping. But it's an important part of keeping our family running and saving money at the same time (both of which are equally important for achieving our long-term goals).
So some highlights from this week:

Kroger- I love some of the deals you can get at Kroger. This week, I snagged 2 boxes of Honey Nut Cheerios for $3.00 :) (I combined a $1 off coupon with their discounted price)
I also got almost 7 lbs of chicken breasts for under $7. So that was fun. :)
After picking up some more produce, OJ, and a few other random items, I was on to Aldi.
Total spent: 22.45
Total saved: $14 and some change :)

There I got my regulars- Fruit cups and applesauce, Cat food and litter, lots and lots of produce, and tons of other stuff.But my absolute FAVORITE new find at Aldi? Their baby wipes. They make me smile so much. Because, as most mothers know, baby wipes are the world's greatest invention. And ALDI sells them in the great little travel wipe containers (even has the convenient snap open lid) for 1.49. Most stores charge 2 or 3 times that much! I use them for EVERYTHING... wiping down the kitchen, the table, while we're on the road and I notice Abbie is covered in a mysterious substance... EVERY thing! So I get real excited about that ;)
Total spent: 38 and some change.

Total on the majority of the groceries this week: $60. On another note, my husband swung into Walmart the other night and spent the same amount. I'm not real sure what he bought besides fajita meat, doritos, and sliced bread. But I love him anyway ;)

Have a great week!
