I was having my normal conversation after being asked how do you do your "shopping thing," when the girl made a comment that offended me a little. She said sure you save lots of money but you must just buy junk food and soft drinks. Truthfully I do buy some treats for the kids and my adult treat of soda, but I also buy milk, bread, cereal, fruit, vegitables and all the other stuff one needs to fill a pantry and feed a family of six.
So, today I had to go shopping for the upcoming long weekend camping trip. I bought food for 3 breakfasts, 3 lunches and 1 dinner for 12 people. Plus, snacks for 3 days. I also bought other things that I needed for my house as well. Notice the 9 lbs of meat, 2 gallons of milk, all the produce, bread and even a bag of briquettes.
.......then, I couldn't help myself. I lined it all up pretty like, and took a picture. Total bill came to $139.08, with a $10.oo off next purchase coupon. This was an ok saving trip, but I still saved over $100.00.
