If they do I should get between $7-8 back. If not should be $2. So I will have money to ad back into me total. (If I do not spend it on something while I am there) Check your receipts and see if they are ringing up right for you.

Just an update on what happened at Kroger this morning.
They refunded me for all 4 of the potato's that I bought minus the .50 for the mega event. So I got $9.96 back.

When to walmart to get some cheap oatmeal. (moms best is $1 and used a .75 IP) and some rice have .55/1 coupons.
Found Honeysuckle white turkeys for .60lb. Grabbed one of them. Seen that they had a place for turkeys that were .40lb. but they were all gone and no time to ask if they had any more.
Total OOP for
2 oatmeal
3 bags rice
1 turkey
$10.92 (used the $$ from kroger refund plus $1)

Got to work and looked at my receipt she charged me for 4 bags of rice and I only got 3. Good thing Walmart is right across the road from work.
Went back to walmart after work to get my .92 back from the rice.
Checked to see if they had anymore of the .40 lb turkeys and they did. I got 2 as that was the limit.
Total OOP for the 2 turkeys
$10.02 but got refunded .92 for the overcharge.

Total OOP for the day $10
Total OOP for the month $41

No OOP from yesterday, don't remember if I reported that.

Went to Kroger and did 2 transactions but I'll combine since it's kinda long anyway. Here's what I got.....

15 Bumble Bee tuna
6 Carnation milk
6 Hormel chili w/beans
12 Gatorade
12 BC Potatoes
3 Brown and Serve sausage
6 Sunny D
4 Keebler cookies
3 LOL butter
4 Halls cough drops
4 Rolaids
4 Ghirardelli brownies
2 12 double roll Northern TP (YAY!! Now I don't have to go to NJ to recycle PK's!)

1st transaction total $86.83, OOP $1.85 96% savings so doesn't count
2nd transaction total $86.28, OOP $3.00 95% savings so doesn't count

Also received $2 OYNO for buying brownies so that goes in the kitty for next time.
Did I say I love Kroger??

L - sandwich and veggies
D - nothing yet, I may just make tuna...kids are working so they get WYSIWYG
Snacks - chips/salsa, candy

My family has a hard time not eating out. The other day we ate out and spent almost 11 dollars. I said my budget for this month was 50. Does it disqualify me or does it come out of my budget? But other than so far we have bought nothing.

Dang I think I might be stopping at Walmart for turkeys tomorrow!

Just remembered I have a $3 NWPN MIR form for when you buy a turkey too

[kremsh]

Y'all can have all the turkeys, I won't take any from you.....not too wild about turkey, we usually have pork roast!

[kittensqueak]

Ok, I haven't gone shopping yet this month for groceries! I did go to a bunch of WAG today...I found .06 in the parking lot.

That's just not right! My custom shoe shelf - this pic was taken this summer, so there are some different shoes there now. This is just my pumps; tennis shoes, sandals, and boots are stored in the closet (because they're just not as pretty to look at!)



P.S. sorry for tripping you up with the avatar change - it was just that time!

Edit - I just realized there are tennis shoes on the top shelf in this pic. Definitely not anymore! Hey when the shelf was built I realized I had more space for shoes and went a little crazy afterward
