Shopping Trip - July 6th
Posted 07-06-2008 at 11:49:34 PM by hardertobreathe
This wasn't the most exciting trip, but it's been fun to record my grocery shopping here - makes a nice accompaniment to my budget spreadsheet to track how I'm doing!
Total Spent: $1.06 - would have been a lot less, but my store's stock was severely depleted from the holiday, so I wasn't able to buy all the overage items I had planned. And I was having some serious chocolate cravings tonight, so forgoing the candy wasn't an option.
Total saved: $19.72
Accumulated a grand total of $79.25 towards my 2nd fuel discount so far.
I got:
2 boxes of Rice-a-Roni
2 boxes of Zantac
Sunday newspaper - more coupons!
5 candy bars - the empty wrappers are meant to signify the 2 I ate in the car on the way home!
And yes, I realize the irony of purchasing candy and Zantac at the same time.
The checker commented that tonight's trip "Is the most you've spent all week!".

Hey I'm in Oregon too. For some reasons, our Sunday Oregonian has a different front cover!
I'm in Portland. Where are you located in Oregon?Posted 07-07-2008 at 09:33:49 AM by GourmetMelts

That's really weird! I wonder why?
I'm about an hour and a half from you, in Seaside. (So if you ever need a quick turn around on a trade, feel free to PM me - mail turnaround is about a day from here to Portland!)Posted 07-07-2008 at 10:20:18 AM by hardertobreathe - Cool!
I will be in Seaside area for my birthday. Well we are actually going to Wheeler, OR. I love the coast!

Haha, nice that the checker knew what great deals you got (and wasnt grudging or refusing them to you)!Posted 07-08-2008 at 10:37:51 AM by saveit - That's cool, Olivia! This is definitely a fun place to visit. :)
Saveit, I am very lucky to have the greatest cashiers ever. They all know me and are super nice and helpful!Posted 07-08-2008 at 09:51:15 PM by hardertobreathe
