I went shopping Friday afternoon to Walgreens. By then they were out of a lot of the men's products that were on sale and had higher coupon values off. I still saved about $12, though.
Friday night a huge snowstorm started. Okay, for this area, Hampton Roads, 3 inches is a major snowstorm, but this really was impressive. I was stuck inside so cleaned all day yesterday! Yay! I came up with 5 garbage bags full of things to trash and one bag full of giveaway. I thought how great it was that I wasn't even tempted to go shopping until my husband asked if I wanted to go out to dinner. Well, duh, having cleaned all day, of course I did! So we found one of the few restaurants open and ate for $35 with tip. He had a giftcard from work which covered the total cost and tip so we didn't spend anything out of pocket.
By the way, it kept snowing into the early morning today so there is lots more cleaning to do. :)

So far behind!
Okay, I'll admit. If my home was as organized as I wish my head was, Martha Stewart would envy me. Get it? Right, neither my home nor my brain is organized right now!
I am getting a birthday present shipped off a week late, still have two birthday cards that need to go out (one from October!!!!) and a list a mile long of other things I need to do. In my dream world, I'm superwoman!! In the real world, I am hanging by a thread most days!
Anywho, I did my grocery shopping for the week today. I spent a grand total of $18 and saved $24 at Kroger. I don't care for Kroger, they have good deals, but few of their staff seems to ever know what's going on. So I make trips there very rarely, but had some great coupon matchups today to take advantage of.
For $18 I got a bottle of hot wing sauce, cream of mushroom soup, 3 cans of Rotel tomatoes, an energy drink, three pears, a bag of pistachios, three bags of Goldfish crackers, two bags of Kraft shredded cheese, corn tortillas, and a cup of organic yogurt. We have plenty to eat up out of the freezer (meat) and the pantry (every other staple), so this should be all I need to spend this week. I'm sure hoping so anyway!!
