Welcome back to another week of displaying my grocery shopping loot :) Kroger was having a 2nd week of their Mega Events (Football) sale, so of course I took advantage of it! AND managed to stay under budget :)
I did have $40 today for our grocery budget (usually it is $30/week). Daniel and I decided that since the month of March is going to be pretty adventerous (with the baby due the beginning of March), I should go ahead and use some of March's budget each week to be able to stock up/make things ahead of time.
That said, here is what (almost) $40 got me today:
* = Mega Event item
1/2 gal. Milk - $1.89
Dr. Pepper & Pepsi 12pk. - $3.00 ea.
*Lay's - $1.78
*(4) 8oz. Kraft Cheese - $.49 ea.
*(8) Cream Cheese - $.75 ea.
*(2) 12oz. Armour Meatballs - $1.44 ea.
Bread Flour - $2.14
Stacy's Pita Chips - FREE (with coupon from fanning Stacy's on Facebook)
(2) OJ Concentrate - $1.68 ea.
*(2) Rotel - FREE
(2) 12oz. Buddig Deli Meats - $1.50 ea.
Split Chic. Breasts - $2.85 ($.98/lb.)
Celery - $1.63
Bananas - $.93 ($.48/lb.)
Lettuce - $1.55
Onions - $1.28
1lb. Carrots - $1.18
Shelf Price - $89.23
Total OOP - $38.33
Saved - $50.90 / 57%
Only 17 of the Mega Event items are pictured. I did get 20 total, but one thing was toilet paper (which comes from our Misc. budget) and my MIL had asked me to pick up 2 boxes of Raisin Bran for her. These items are not figured into my totals.

You're doing a great job with your shopping! And you'll be so thankful that you have meals already made and in the freezer, and that you shopped ahead later. I can't believe that it's almost time for the baby. I'm so excited for you!
Great job!
Good job! I wondered if you got some more of the .50 cheese like I did, and it looks like you did. Happy cooking!
Great job staying under budget! Have you tried the Buddig lunch meat before? We just got some a few weeks ago for Kevin's lunches and I put some on pizza the other night. It was pretty good!
