 A little more shopping, don't cha know!

11/19 Publix $21.42  Saved $14.81 with BOGO's ad Store Coupons. IBotta - saved $3.20 Progress

11/20 Aldi $85.95 What the heck?  I just noticed I was charged an extra time for Christmas cut out cookies, and I really need to STOP buying paper plates, and plastic cups.  We have a dishwasher...so that would save about $20 a month.

Grocery Shopping To Date:  589.71 (includes dog food, cat food, litter, pee pads)


Tracking the grocery spending for this month has been eye-opening... and the month is not yet over.  But, It has been MONTHS since I have tracked any of my household spending.  I would just wing it.  I think since I have been more diligent financially, I felt the pressure to "stock-up" on specials to try to save money. 

It's a re-learning experience for me, but I am embracing it.
