What are the four food staples you always have on hand?

Before heading to the grocery store, I always ensure we have milk, bread, lunchmeat & pasta.  Those items are staples that you will always (okay, almost always) find in my kitchen.  Preparing 3 homemade lunches per day and having the occasional soup and sandwich night, we must have bread and lunchmeat on hand at all times!  Not to mention that pasta is my go-to last minute meal.

Everyone knows that I’m a huge advocate of eating at home and living on a budget.  That’s why I was excited to share with you that Kroger® Private Selection® products are gourmet quality, without the gourmet price. Their motto is ”Quality You Can Taste, Value You Deserve.” You can’t beat that, right!?

We finally had the chance to let Chipper try his ALPO® Chop House Chucks wet dog food. Let me tell you about how much of a treat this was for our four-legged friend! As a pup who is usually limited to the very specific brand of pet food we feed him and a few treats here and there.

He was SO interested in this gravy laden goodness that came out of a can.

Can’t you tell how excited he is to try it!?

Since he can’t read, I told him it was T-Bone Steak flavored. He seemed to like that 😛

 

Chipper LOVED it!

Here is a video of him getting excited to try his new food:

We want Chipper to live a long long and healthy life, and ALPO® wet dog food is here to help!  Did you know that ALPO® wet dog food is 100% complete and balanced and has quality ingredients, like healthy protein sources, wholesome grains and accents of vegetables, contribute to form a complete and balanced diet for each life stage?  You can learn more about ALPO® balanced nutrition on ALPO’S HOMEPAGE.

Chipper is our family dog, and he is always doing crazy things that make us smile. His long time habit of hopping into my purse when we are getting ready to head out the door never fails to crack us up; even though it is a little heartbreaking to leave him after that. He is always there to greet us when we come home, perched with one little paw against the glass door so he can see us coming up the walk.  He makes us really happy and we try to keep him happy, too.

His favorite time of the day is definitely mealtime. He usually lets us know he is ready to eat by following us around with the most pleading look in his eyes for 30 minutes before his scheduled breakfast or dinner. I was recently asked to give ALPO® a try, and was pleased to see that they offer a wide variety of nutritional and great tasting wet dog food options for our furry friends.

ALPO® wet dog food is 100% complete and balanced and has quality ingredients, like healthy protein sources, wholesome grains and accents of vegetables, all which help form a complete and balanced diet for your dog. It helps support a happy, healthy life, a shiny coat, strong bones and teeth, too. Perhaps the best part of all is that mealtime tail – you know, the one that just can't stop wagging when they see their dinner being prepared? 🙂

I made it to Harris Teeter for Triple Coupons.  There were some items that were already sold out, but I was still able to snatch up some great savings and find a great deal on Country Crock butter.  There were more items that I wanted to get but I maxed out on my 20 coupons per day.

I purchased

4 – 24oz Mrs. Butterworths, Rain check for B1G1 Free Limit 4

2- Lysol Foaming Soap, Rain check for $1.97 Limit 2

2 – 4lb Dixie Crystal Sugar, Rain check for $1.47 Limit 2

Please note that per Harris Teeter Coupon Policy you may only use up to 3 identical coupons.  I was able to use 4 identical coupons for the Mrs. Butterworth thanks to the generosity of the manager on duty.  Before shopping I spoke to her and asked it it would be acceptable if I used 4 coupons since I had a rain check for B1G1 Free with a limit of 4.
