UPDATE: My weekly totals are in for the first week of August. I started shopping on Tuesday since we were near Costco and my kids love getting the samples and a slice of pizza when they go.
Simple Grocery Deal Tip: I buy 2 slices at Costco and divide them in half for our 4 kids. Also, I split the frozen yogurt between 2 kids.
