Grocery Shopping for This Week

I do love it when I come across unexpected super-duper deals! This week was a big hit at Kroger! Eggs and lunch meat on markdown - those are hard to find, almost never. And I was even MORE tickled pink that I had coupons for all of the eggs! I won't have to buy eggs or lunch meat for several weeks. I'm so excited!!

Ahhh...once again you bring home the bargains! Looks like you did really good! I wonder, if we all shopped like you, industry might go belly-up, or else quit issuing coupons!
