Shopping List - Week 7

Seven weeks in and I think this challenge is actually getting harder. For a while there I was feeling a little cocky... like this wasn't really that hard. And I don't know what changed but the last few weeks have been HARD! I'm hoping that now that I'm getting a stockpile back (it was dwindling, which is probably why there were a few easy weeks) that things will get better.

Today I shopped at Kroger and they double coupons up to and including a $1.00. Just a reminder that when I post that I used a $2.00 coupon, that probably means that I've used a $1.00 coupon that doubled. I'm just too lazy to type it all out correctly ;)

Here's how I did:

$1.00 Kroger Fruit Snacks
$.50 Hershey Bar (bought 2) - Minus $.50 coupon = $.25 each
$2.50 Pepperidge Farms Cookies (bought 2) - Minus 2 $2.00 coupons = $.50 each
$1.00 Toblerone (bought 2) - Minus $2.00 coupon = FREE
$1.99 Nestle Tollhouse Morsels (bought 4) - Minus 2 $2.00 coupons = $.99 each
$1.00 Kroger Paprika
$2.80 Covergirl Lipstick - clearance - Minus $2.00 coupon = $.80
$.80 Heavy Duty Sponge
$1.25 Philly Cream Cheese (bought 2) - Minus $2.00 coupon = $.25 each
$2.79 Star Balsamic Vinegar - Minus $2.00 coupon = $.79

$8.23 Smithfield Ham - Minus $2.00 coupon = $6.23
$1.67 Roman Meal Wheat Bread (bought 2) - Minus 2 $1.67 coupons = FREE

Total $28.14

The ham, 2 of the Little Smokies, 2 of the chocolate chips, and the cream cheese are for entertaining. And yes I realize I just bought a ham for entertaining, but I need 2.

New total:

$18.35

Now we just have to invite everyone over to eat all the ham we have.... we haven't gotten that far yet!
