Wednesday Weekly Shopping: The Land of Chocolate

Wednesday, November 17, 2010

I invite you to link up to your best grocery deals below!

This week marked the first week of ALDI in South Florida, and I took advantage of it! After making my ALDI price list, I saw that ALDI had the cheapest milk and eggs in South Florida, so I'll be buying those basics there. I also bought several other items that rarely go on sale.

I did some great shopping at Target, using both manufacturer's and Target store coupons. See my deals on cheese and crackers here. I also got good deals on cream of mushroom soup and cream cheese. I used a $1 off produce coupon and splurged for snow peas, which I'll showcase in my next frugal recipe.

I bought some bread super-cheap at Winn-Dixie and bought some veggies at Western Beef. And at Publix, I bought some yogurt (see here for my yogurt mishap), frankfurters, alfredo sauce, and most importantly, eight bags of chocolate chips. So now, my house is...

Overall, I spent $69.30 for items worth $137.38, or a 50% savings.

See all my shopping here.

Check out the following to see how others shopped this week!
