Today we went grocery shopping. The last couple of months have been a bit tight, and we've been living out of the freezer. Well, the "freezer fairy" didn't come and we were forced to re-stock. We have had bad exeriences buying meat at Super Store, but this week the Freebie" for buying $250 worth of food was a "butter basted turkey". The last free turkey we got there was inedible--which is why we so much appreciate the turkeys we get through Cathy. We knew we would be buying a lot and hoped and hoped that we had enough for a turkey, even if we took it home and ground it up to make turkey burger. Well, she rings it up and the total is $322.00! OMG! So after the turkey came off it was just under $300.We totaled everything up after we got home. and we put almost 30 meals of meat in the freezer. Should do for awhile, and only two things of household cleaners--just about all food. Biggest shopping we have done in months, but some things we only buy once a year.
Self improvement went bust today. Toast and red jelly for breakfast, a grilled cinnamon bun and cookies for lunch, and pizza and cookies for supper, with Hawkins Cheezies for an evening snack. But I did walk between Walmart and Superstore, instead of driving the 300'.
