Grocery Game

Don and I gleefully left Kroger after paying $56 for $102 worth of groceries--- a $46 savings without clipping coupons! Here are my recommendations for this week:

*Buy 3 boxes of Kleenex @$1 each. Receive a coupon for a free box worth up to $2.50. (If using self-check, the coupon will print before you pay, so go ahead and pick up one of those pretty decorative oval-shaped boxes at 2.49--- You know you're worth it.)
*Split chicken breast for $.99/lb (Pilgrims Pride or Kroger brand)
*Jumbo Cameo Apples $1/lb
*Buy 4 participating Kellogg's items (We opted for the 19.1 oz boxes of Apple Jacks w/ Barbie or Hot Wheels sports watch inside @ 4/$10.) and receive a 24 pack of Kroger 16.9 oz bottles of water.

Why not pay a bit of your savings forward at the check-out? There are little pads of tear-off slips with bar codes making it quick and easy to donate $1, $3, or $5 to benefit hungry people. Just give a slip to your cashier that will be added onto your bill.
