Oh yeah...my grocery shopping today.
I mentioned yesterday that I was going to try to do a bare bones shopping trip this week, due to my $90 trip to Costco. I did my best, and I resisted buying a lot of things at the grocery store, so I came away with a total of $47.65. It would have been a tad better, but my husband needed a new bottle of dandruff shampoo, which was almost $5.
Ah well...it's much better than spending $80. If I can manage this again next week, I should be just about back on budget, I think. 🙂
I like the look of your new Blog!

Yes! Things like shampoo really eat into the grocery budget, I find. I've found better bargains on *some* items at the dollar store. You have to compare though...Some things aren't better deals.
The annoying thing is, another grocery store in the area(which I'd just been to in the last few days) carries a dandruff shampoo that is much cheaper than the one I bought. But he was totally out, and so I had to buy the more expensive one. It was a store brand, but kind of an expensive store brand! I'll have to plan ahead better next time....I'm thinking of just buying a bottle of the cheaper stuff to have as a backup for when he finishes this bottle.
