Great shopping trip today!

I love pinchingyourpennies.com! They are the best. They compile all the best deals at the grocery stores and match up all the coupons to go with the sales. This week was an excpetional week at Albertsons. So many things were on sale.
I got 4 gogurts, 2lbs butter, 1 doz eggs, 4 ricotta cheeses, 3 boxes toaster strudel, 1 bag green giant veggies with sauce, 8 pasta ronis, 8 rice a ronis, 12 muffin mixes, 8 pancake mixes, 6 boxes of organic cereal, 1 package of razor cartridges, 6 packs of easy ups, and 4 boxes of potatoes. Regular retail price $277. I paid $134.00 and recieved $85.00 in catalina coupons to use like cash on future purchases. What a deal! At QFC they had Campbells Select Harvest soup for $1.25, I had $1 off coupons for them along with coupons for the other soup. So 21 cans of soup for $8.50!

Freezer inventory

I bought some chicken on Friday and when I came home I couldn't find room for it in the freezer, it was time to clean it out and find out what was in there. I only found two mystery items that promptly were thrown away, along with the last few popsicles leftover from this summer. My dear DH has made a bargain with a fisherman client~ 250 lbs of fish will soon be coming~! I need to make room in the freezer pronto! I will be making my menus for the next few weeks from what I all ready have in there.
