I am budgeting $150.00 for the week of September 9 for groceries. I was over my budget in August and am working on bringing the spending down. Although I saved almost 58% at Shoprite, 3 of my printable coupons did not scan this week. Usually all of my coupons scan, especially when I save the file to as a PDF and print them later. I ended up putting the items back. I may try a different check out lane next week to see if the coupons work. I spent $148.97 this week!
I spent $23.84 at Whole Foods Market
I spent $28.10 at Trader Joe's
Simple Grocery Deal:
I saved $1.50 this month because I bought the frozen blueberries and Bran Flakes at Trader Joe's instead of Aldi. That is an annual savings of $18.00 for 2 items. The frozen blueberries are $1.99 at Trader Joe's versus $2.29 at Aldi. The cereal is $1.99 at Trader Joe's versus $2.19 at Aldi.
I spent $47.64 on FOOD at Shoprite
