Well, another week has come and gone. Today hubby and I headed to Publix to do our weekly shopping trip. I had put together a really long grocery list and for some reason, I wasn’t thinking that I was going to be spending a lot of money.  But four pounds of shredded cheese adds up (even with my $1.00 off cheese coupons), two boxes of trash bags and at least $20 worth of fresh produce added up quickly.  So, we spent more then I would have liked.  To bring you up to date, I finished my 10 day juice cleanse on Monday and now we are juicing every morning and eating normal the rest of the day.  As you know, the cost of produce adds up! I also took advantage of the $10.00 off $50.00 Gas Card coupon although I did not include those numbers below since the gas card is part of our gas budget (not grocery budget).

How did you do this week shopping? I hope you were able to spend less and save more than I did! Please leave a comment letting everyone know how you did!
