Week 2 Grocery Shopping


We went shopping Saturday morning this week rather than Friday because of Justin's schedule, which frustrated me. It's actually funny because I'm not the most organized person on the planet *insert fake shocked here* but when I set a plan out I expect it to go as planned. But life loves to throw curve balls, doesn't it?

Like last week, there were a few changes, deletions, and additions made to my grocery list as we shopped.

Deletions & Changes:

1 pkg 24 count Activia yogurt - As we shopped I noticed that we were getting close to our budget mark and still had a few important things to pick up so I decided to forego the yogurt. I figured I would go back and get it if I had enough left over afterwards.
1 bunch of broccoli, 1 bag of potatoes, & a couple stalks of celery - To be honest, the quality of these products left much to be desired so I decided to pass on them.
1 container of strawberries & 1 container of blueberries - I looked at the fresh berries and considered them at length before deciding on frozen berries instead. Frozen berries will go further and I won't end up throwing them out at the end of the week because they've rotted in the fridge if I happen to forget about them being there.
1 envelope taco seasoning - I simply forgot it. :(

Additions:

1 box 8 count no name chocolate chip granola bars & 2 single servings of Yop yogurt drink - Both were picked up at the children's behest.
100g deli-sliced piri piri chicken - This I picked up for Justin.

We spent a total of $148.98.
