This was a big week for grocery shopping, perhaps making up for last week.

On Monday, I went to Stop & Shop.  I had a lot of coupons, and thankfully many things were on sale.  For starters, I had coupons for $10 off a $100 purchase and 600 gas points with a $160 purchase (600 gas points = 60¢ off / gallon ≈ $12.00 off a full tank of gas).  It took a little work to get there, but I spent $160.88 after all sales & coupons, thereby earning the gas points.  I did buy three more bags of potatoes and two more chuck roasts than I intended (good sales, but we will need to eat them).  Otherwise I would have come in more like $125.

On Wednesday, I went to Wegman’s.  This was primarily for milk, though I picked up a few other items while I was there.  There was another banana, but it got eaten before the picture was taken.

I went to Stop & Shop again on Sunday.  This time I had $20 off $100 purchase and 2X gas points, among other coupons.  With the steaks, roast, and fish this was pretty easy to achieve.  That being said, everything in this picture except the bread, herbs, and bananas was on sale.

With sports wrapping up, I’m going to be getting back to menu plans.
