My No List, No Planning, Way Overbudget Shopping Trip

The title explains it all! Today felt like my pre-couponing days when I would just go and not care how much I spent. I did use a few coupons but this trip was pretty bad!

Sams


All of this was $124.21

Pop-tarts
Bread
Nature Valley Granola Bars
Rice Krispie Treats
Mission Tortillas
Otis Spukmeyer muffins
2 gallons of milk
1 gallon of OJ
1 Barbie movie (not inclded in the grocery budget)
Carnation Instant Breakfast
Sliced Cheese
Shredded Cheese
2 bottles of Apple Juice
1 carton of cigarettes (not included in the grocery budget)
so I can minus $33 off plus $9 for the movie and that puts it at
$82.21 which is not bad for Sams!

Schnucks



All of this for $79.43
I still don't know how I spent this much! Jeff threw a All-Star game t-shirt in there which was $18. Since the all-star game is in St. Louis this year, he had to have it!

Tshirt
3 boxes of taco shells
Quaker True Delights
Yoplait Drinkable yogurt
3 Lunchables
Whole Wheat Pitas
Salad Mix
3 bags of apple bites
Sour Cream
6 yogurts
10 Gerber baby food jars
Grapes
Lunchmeat
Multi-grain Cheerios
9 lbs of boneless chicken

minus the tshirt my total for groceries was $61.43

Grand Total $143.61

I think I am done for the rest of July!

Oh oh!! You spent way more than normal. I think it was Jeff's shirt that put you over budget!!

The Diamond Castle movie is pretty good. My favorite is the Prince and the Pauper though. I don't really like Rapunzel one though.
I did grocery shopping w/o a plan, budget or coupons today too. I don't like grocery shopping with my husband as we always spend more than we should.

If you don't want to extra expense on your grocery shopping then you can use grocery coupon at www.clickmycoupon.com and get big discount offers.
