| Made some pizza this weekend with home-made (food processer) oat flour...yum! |
Publix and Kroger both had some great sales this week, and I took advantage of them. My fridge, freezer, and pantry are all pretty stocked, and that is a good feeling. I paid $86.39 ($39.74 at Publix [1 trip] and $46.65 at Kroger [3 trips]) for 78 items, so about ~$1.10 per item. Considering that I got a good variety of real food (rotisserie chicken, clementines, soups, tomatoes, cereal, etc.), I’m pretty happy with these trips (even though I spent quite a bit more than normal!). I saved $134.06, or about 64%, as an average for all the trips.
Pictured below are three of my trips: one to Publix and two to Kroger.
