Okie dokie, I shared my amazing Publix trip earlier this week (which was really fun, but not what really happens all the time when I coupon . . .) but here's my pretty normal Kroger trip that I also made. I spent $41.44 plus $6.11 in tax (ouch!), however I was able to use my $25 Kroger Gift Card to reduce my out of pocket to $22.75. . . WOOHOO!
I did stock up on a few items I wouldn't normally by because of the gift card (like the Uncrustables & Sweetened Condensed Milk), because I know I've got some crazy busy weeks ahead of me and need to do whatever I can to lighten my load. (For years I thought those Uncrustables were just so frivolous, but something's gotta give around here!) Here's what I purchased with matchups (hopefully this helps!)
