Saturday Budget Check

Saturday already?!  This week we did a lot more shopping than last week!  Last week we spent under $7 on groceries, so our budget was $43 for this week!  There were a lot of good deals and promotions.  Here is where I spent our budget:

I had Daniel go to Broulims & Albertsons for me on Monday, so these first 2 are last weeks deals.

The Coupon Basics
Broulims:
1 Wheat Bread
2 Egg Noodles
2 Knorr Pasta
Bananas
Mission Tortillas
Paid: $11.01

Deals in Rexburg Idaho
Albertsons Trip 1
4 Kraft Dressing
2 Rozoni
Paid: $7.53
Recieved: $4 Catalina

Smith's
I went to Smith's to check out the mega event prices & hoping to make money buying Purex, Pillsburry, & Country Crock.   I found the items I wanted & went to check out.  When the total rang up, It was twice as much as I thought!!!  I soon realized that the Idaho Falls price for the Pillsburry Grands was twice as much as the Memphis Prices posted by Saving a Bundle.  I had them cancel that order, but still bought some other sales items.  I plan to go back Monday to get some of the Mega Event items.

Bought:
2 Gallons Milk @ 1.69 ea!
2 Cartons Kroger Cottage Cheese
1 Carton Eggs
Kroger Steak Sauce
Coke
Paid: $11.35

Albertsons deals in Rexburg
Albertson's Trip 2
This deal is still good until next Tuesday!  If you like canned veggies or Frosted Flakes, that is a great price!

How much closer can you get?!  26 cents over budget- I can accept that.  :D  We are stocked up on Frosted Flakes, Salad Dressing, and canned Veggies for a while!
