Today was not a good day for shopping. Well, it was but I was way off my game. I wasn’t thinking and bought the pop tarts at Harris Teeter instead of Farm Fresh (BIG mistake). THEN I didn’t find my 2nd Gold Peak Tea coupon until I came home from shopping. I figure my carelessness cost me about $2.50 today. On the plus side, my husband has a ton of drinks for work now. We also refill the empty Powerade bottles, so that should last us awhile.
I just have a picture of my shopping bags from Farm Fresh. Most of my purchases were staying in the garage, so I didn’t want to unload them onto the table then have to carry everything back to the garage fridge.

9 Powerade = $9

Looks like you did great but I hate getting mixed up too. Wish I had a Harris Teeter close to me, but I love my Farm Fresh. Even with bringing my 3 sons I ended up saving 51%. From $81 to $39 dollars. I was able to teach the boys about grocery shopping and saving money. They were so excited.

That’s a great lesson for kids to start learning early. Mine have learned to say “mom, when you get a coupon we want…” 🙂
That was a great savings!
