We had a big shopping week this week.  What can you expect when we only spent $7 last week??  The stock pile was dwindling and the sales were great.  I hit Publix twice, once for the old deals and once for the new ad and we went to Kroger.

This was the first Publix trip.  There are no pictures from trip #2 or Kroger, both done on the same day, it was take a picture and skip naps or get the kids down for an incredibly late nap.  I choose nap.

Publix: (combined)
Total before sales and coupons: $231.11
Total Spent: $58.35
Total Saved: $172.76 or 75%

Kroger:
Total before sales and coupons: $72.05
Total Spent: $31.67
Total Saved: $40.38 or 56%
Not a great trip but it did include two packs of diapers and a splurge for my favorite Tortellini – not on sale, it was hard but I did it

Weekly Totals:
Before sales and coupons: $303.16
Spent: $90.02
Saved: $213.14 or 67%

Year to date:
Total Value of Purchases: $1333.31
Total Spent: $316.04 ($39.51 weekly average)
Total Saved: $1017.27 or 76.3%
