This trip was a little tricky :) I knew I wanted to get the broccoli because it was on sale for $.99/lb. Then I remembered that I had grabbed some coupons off of a display last week that were for $2 off a produce purchase. To use the coupon I had to buy 2 of certain Kraft items. So I looked, and sure enough, they had those Kraft items on sale. I checked, and I did still have a coupon for 1 salad dressing and 1 for the Miracle Whip! Oh joy!! I was able to get all three things for super-rock-bottom prices!
When I got home I cut up and froze the chickens and cooked the bones down overnight. I was able to pick off about another 1 1/2 cups of meat, and then had 2 cups of broth. This evening I cut up and blanched the broccoli and it is in the freezer :) Well, except for what we ate fresh last night and the 1 crown that I cut up to eat fresh this weekend.

wowsers woman! You rock the savings world!! Will you be my personal Financial Advisor/Planner/Spender?
You could hire out your services and be the pantry stocker for people! I think you are doing great, especially disciplining yourself to get stuff, and then cook/repackage it and so on right away. I do that a little bit, but not nearly as much as you, and sometimes it gets old. It was more fun before I had kids, I think. But, I don't want to blame things on them, I think I have changed.
