Well done! Where do shop most of the time? Looks like you save a lot more than me!!!
ReplyDeleteHi, LynnMarie,
ReplyDeleteI have a Sav-a-Lot about a mile from my house, so I go there a lot. My husband's doctor is in Saginaw, about 80 miles from here, so when he has an appointment I take advantage of it and go to Aldi's while there. We have a SuperWalmart in our town, so I go there sometimes as well. I buy most of my meat from a butcher shop about 20 miles from here, it's worth the once-a-month trip to stock up. I buy most of my frozen veggies at GFS, and when I go to the city where that is I stop at Meijer and/or Kroger to pick up their sale items. Our seasonal produce stand just opened for the summer, so we will be eating a lot more fresh foods now, their prices are excellent too!
