This week in shopping...so far

I tried the Grocery Game again this week. My grocery store bill was originally $104.98 and I saved $26.50.

I had hoped to buy more but this week was more difficult:

• I had Meghan with me. It is hard to think with all of her babbling. (Seriously, the child does not shut up. Her new thing, asking "what happens next?")
• I went to an unfamiliar store. We went to BJs first so i hit the market next door. Not the one I usually go to. So I had no idea where everything was.
• A lot of the stuff I wanted to buy was missing from the shelves. I was not able to buy any of the meat listed on sale because the did not have any out. There were a few other things that were missing. I would have tried to get rain checks but I really just wanted to get out of there.

I did get a bunch of stuff a BJs as well. I saved $28.49 there just by bringing coupons that were about to expire for stuff I usually buy anyway.

I am waiting until the CVS list comes out so I can stop there later in the week.
