Menu Plan.

This year I am trying something new. I'm going to keep a record of what groceries I buy and how much money I'm spending. 

I love Aldi for my primary shopping: all my basics and great produce prices. I also like Kroger. They were my favorite until they quit doubling coupons. They still do a free item every Friday.

I started off the new year with a trip to Kroger to use up some Slimfast coupons. (Yes, I'm on a diet. Down 5 lbs so far!)

This is what I bought:

Kroger brand fresh chicken breast - 5.65

cheddar cheese block - 2.00

Lean Cuisine - 2.00 x 5

Turkey Bacon -1.49 x 4

Turkey lunch meat - 3.00

Slimfast - 5.00 x 2

Biscuits - 1.00 x 2

Saltines - .99

Hamburger Helper (chicken fried rice) 1.00 x5 

(I love this stuff, even if it is probably very unhealthy)

Slimfast snacks - 3.49 x 2

Gatorade chews FREE

Hot dog buns - 1.00

Tide - 3.50

Sliced cheese - .99

I used the following coupons

1$ off five hamburger helpers

1$ off 5 lean cuisines

BOGO Slimfast

5$ off 2 slimfast

1.50 off Tide

.30 off biscuits

  Before coupons 91.00 

I paid 46.92
