We don't even want the Crystal Light. We don't consume aspertame. I'll donate it and think of the 24¢ as the cost of the water. Our well water is bad--not toxic, but it is undrinkable. I take empty water jugs to work, fill them, and cart them home. Sometimes I forget to bring home enough on Friday... These water bottles are going into storage and may someday save the day as Sunday morning coffee.

I will take advantage of the 3 day Boston Butt price by buying it at Fareway where the meat is nicer. I may get the ground beef there too, but I already have a lot of ground beef in my freezer. Oh! And there's the pork loin in the regular ad. I wish my freezer weren't so full. (I only have the one above the fridge.)

[MamaBird06]

didn't see much for us in this weeks ad, but a couple things that may be be decent deal: french's mustard .88 there is a q out 1/2 ex 8-31-08 .38 each a/c, not free, but if you need it, that's not a bad price.

Also, kashi entree's are 2.78-2.00 IP =.78 each

Organic valencia oranges: 2.99 4 lb bag~last time these were on sale they were out, so they substituted for 5 lb regular, so don't forget to ask if you can't find them!

I probably will be getting: 2 .44 mac and cheese, 1 post cereal to use free cheese wyb 3 kraft products coupon and free honey bunches of oats coupon. .88 plus tax for 2 mac n cheese, kraft single, and cereal, not too bad of a deal. I will pick up 2 more westsoy milks to have 20 and send off for the 10$ b&n g/c rebate.
