Weekly Grocery/household Haul - Target

 

Target (non-super center)

9/30

 

Things were just off for me as I was breaking routine and going a day early.  Didn't think much about it but you could just feel the change in routine.  K was with me as his dad happened to work over time and couldn't watch K.  The reason I went a day early was that we were having our 2nd homestudy visit the next day.  That ended up getting changed as well.  That's just another story when I write about our adoption process.

 

So K and I went shopping and found almost everything we need to complete dinners on the menu for the week.  We ended up with lots of fall treats as well.

 

Here is our Weekly shopping haul

Weekly grocery haul -Publix

      Well I'm going to give grocery hauls a whirl.  What can I say I'm a mom and I love to see what other moms are buying.  Yup sometimes I just want to be snoopy. Not competing with them just like to see the behind the scene of other families.  So lets get to it!

 

         This weeks haul didn't consisted of any meat as we are trying to clean out the old freezer.  The freezer products we did get don't go into that freezer are only snacks/lunch food.

Our every 2 weeks grocery budget is $150-$200 for a family of 3 and I'm  not afraid to use coupons.  If I can save money. I'm all for it!  Couponing takes me maybe 20 mins a week to gather what I need.  I use sites that do all the matching for me.

 

What I got this week (9/17)

 

Chili frozen meals -perfect for lunches but wont buy again due to the high sodium

Fries - are a staple in our house.  At least once a week we have fries

Grapes

Pizza rolls - Great deal only reason we got so many.  Will last a while.

3 mix veggies

2 yogurt - for my yogurt loving child

Mashed potatoes- for those nights that I don't have time to whip them up from scratch

crackers  -  Son loves these

Kerry gold butter- on sale for a lot less than Wal-Mart and its the only butter we use

dry pasta - a staple for those nights you don't feel like cooking much

Fresh pasta - a couple of planned meals

Bushes beans -Mexican dinner nights
