That is where the local grocery store comes into play.  This weekend, Saturday and Sunday only, Safeway is having a couple great deals I thought I should bring up.

Buy 1 get 1 free on select soups, Doritos, Pre-made salads, bagels, and instant oatmeal.

Get 5 boxes of  Kraft Macaroni & Cheese for only $2.  It seems like these were just on sale for 10 for $10 and I remember the day when they were 25 cents each.   But 5 boxes for $2 is a good deal.

A few of my shopping friends like to see  who can save the highest percentage on their grocery bills, and with these deals this weekend I just might win.  We consider 50% of what you spent a very good trip to the store, for example you pay $100 on your haul, but the ticket says your total saving was $50.

Have fun shopping.

Take the kids with a calculator and let them add up the things you get as you go.  It’s a great way to keep them occupied if they are old enough.

Shopping Sense web site has a list for the greater metro area.

Luckily, I found my list to be more inclusive for the local area.

Enjoy.
