Wednesday Weekly Shopping: Veggies and more veggies

I invite you to link up to your best grocery deals below, to inspire others to save more!

This week, I got my fill of veggies.

I bought lots of 'em at ALDI, where there were some great produce deals to be had.  (Sorry, no picture!  I will start photographing my ALDI trips as well as my great deals from other stores.)

There were 3 lb. bags of onions, trays of 6 Roma tomatoes, and a tray with one red and one yellow pepper - each for 99¢!  I bought as much as I thought I could use.  I also got lots of cucumbers and avocados, my snacks since I've cut out most bread and pasta from my diet (and lost 15 pounds since January!).  And I bought the usual dairy and eggs there, as well as a few items I haven't been able to stock up on yet.  I spent more than half my budget at ALDI this week.

I also got lots of frozen veggies and juice at Target:

And some cheese and personal care items:

Some great deals at CVS:

And some at Walgreens:

And after having gone to Publix three times last week, I didn't go at all this week.

Overall, this week I spent $77.90 for items which retail for $165.85, or a 53% savings.  (But don't compare percentages!)  Of course, if I compared the ALDI prices to supermarket full prices, it would show a lot more savings. 

For the year (9 weeks), I've spent $551.92 for items which retail for $1118.03, and saved $566.11, or a 51% savings. That's an average of $61.32 spent each week. 

See all my shopping here.
