My $40 Weekly Grocery Challenge–Week 4–Part One!

Today after my sweet trip to Walgreens I decided to head over to my local Produce market for some fresh veggies. Then, after I took my little boy to the Library, we headed to Publix for a few things. Here is what I got for around $12!

Produce Market

-1 head of lettuce @ $1.19

-1 bulb of fresh green onion @ .59

-1 bag of baby carrots @ $1.39

-4 multi colored peppers @ .50 for all 4!!! I love the produce market’s prices! 🙂

-1 lb. of bananas @ .49

Publix

-2 bottles of Sundown vitamins @ $2.99 and $3.29. Used 1 $1/1 manuf. coupon stacked with the $6/2 Publix coupon = FREE + overage!

-2 boxes of Morningstar Veggie Chix Nuggets BOGO @ 3.99 each minus 2 $1/1 IP coupons found HERE = $1.99 for 2 boxes!

-1 bottle of La Choy Sweet and Sour sauce- no coupons, but I needed it for my Sweet and Sour Chicken tonight for dinner! = $1.89

-1 box of Minute Brown Rice @ $2.19 minus .50/1 coupon from 1/24 SS = $1.69

-1 box of Knox gelatin @ $1.29 each minus $4/1 coupon for ANY Knox product from 1/24 RP = FREE + major overage!!

-1 bag of Starbucks coffee on sale @ $5.99 minus $1.50/1 coupon from 12/13 SS = $4.49 for my favorite coffee!       

– 1 tub of Huggies Wipes @ $2.49 each minus .75/1 IP coupon found HERE stacked with $1.50/1 Publix coupon from the new Publix coupon booklet Little Book of Big Buys (I found these booklets in a stand -alone Kimberly Clark display at the front of my store) = .24 for a tub of wipes! Drew is no longer in diapers or pullups, but I am stocking up for baby showers and just to have these on hand for donations!

My total at Publix: $7.42

So, after all my bargain-hunting adventures today, I have $28 left for the week in grocery cash! I have to say that I really am enjoying paying cash up front for all of these purchases! It really helps to keep me accountable! Hubby really loves it too! 🙂
