We had a big shopping week this week!  I hit Kroger & CVS and made up for not shopping the past few weeks.  I had a total of $150 in our unused grocery budget but didn’t need all of it.  Our produce box each week also continues to be awesome!!  This week it had so many different colors I felt like we needed to work on still life painting skills.

Kroger:
Total before coupons: $211.47
Total Spent: $87.92
Total saved: $123.55 or 58.5%

This included $20 in Pork for a big July 4th gathering we had (that’s what the soda & ice cream was for too).

CVS:
Total before coupons: $21.89
Total Spent: $3.60
Total Saved: $18.29 or 83.6%
ECB Remaining: $13

The poor CVS guy didn’t quite know what he was doing and at one point during checkout he owed me $6.70.  That’s a no-no in CVS world so after some adjustments we came to a good agreement.  It was a great little trip in the end, especially with the free unexpected chocolate!  You’ll notice the chocolate is not in the picture above, I ate it as I left the store…
