Ground Beef .82 a lb.

From 3.29 lb  (20.76)
to 2.99 lb (18.87)
To .82 cent a pound (5.19 for over 6 lbs)
YES .82 A POUND FOR GROUND BEEF
The meat was not old, my picture and post is.
At Giant, I know when they mark down meat.
I found this ground beef that wasn't marked down, and expired on the day I found it.  
I know the butcher, so he did me a favor.
I have blogged before about getting to know your grocery store's butcher.

Another Cereal Killing

Not the first time I have done this.
And won't be the last...
Acme had a sale, I had coupons
12 boxes of General Mill Cereal for about a buck a box

Spend to save???

Have you every said" Look how much I saved?" after going shopping?  Well, you would save more if you hadn't shopped.  Normally I would agree..
But if you have to shop, use discounts and coupons.
I buy the Entertainment book for myself.
I get grocery store coupons in it.  That alone pays for the book in 2 grocery trips.
Plus I used a promo code and received 30% off the book.
But it also has deals for travel and magazines.  Think gifts for Christmas.
One year I was able to buy 25.00 gift certificates to local eateries for $2.00 ea.

Discovered a new Store

SAVERS
It is a thrift store.
Plus today they had 50% clothing.
Got my son 2 pair of pants, Eddie Bauer fleece, 2 jackets with hoods,
Socks, and long sleeve shirts, Gap and more.
Bought 13 items, paid 15.83
One Gap shirt or Eddie Bauer would cost that or more.
