grocery day!

Our grocery budget refreshes on Friday so we went grocery shopping today.  I left with $57 ($7 of which was actually not grocery money...just spending money) and came home with $17 and a couple dollars in change.  The change goes in a jar so I don't even bother to count it.  I never pay with change so IDK how much there was..probably a couple dollars worth.

Anyway we went to Aldis, a local store, Dollar Tree and Walgreens.

Aldis
fruit punch concentrate 82 cents
baking soda 49 cents
2 tubes of biscuits 38 cents each
1 box of 12 packs of Ramen noodles $1.79
2 packs of 4 pears in each pack 49 cents each pack
pancake mix $1.49
2 bags Chocolate Chips $1.69
4 lbs of onions 99 cents

Local store
2 1/2 lbs of sirloin steak (on sale for $2.78/lb) $6.92
2 roma tomatoes $1.15 (OUCH!  R asked for tacos for dinner so I had to get tomatoes and lettuce..neither of which is on sale but I will make BLTs for dinner one night as well so it is not a waste)
1 bag of shredded lettuce $1.79  (the heads of lettuce were just a few cents cheaper and I like the shredded better so I spent the extra $ even though it is less lettuce)
green grapes  on sale for $1.48/lb  $2.55
10 lbs of potatoes $1.98

Dollar tree=everything $1.  We went here for new nightlights and a couple other things.  We decided to get my single friend a chocolate rose and a helium balloon to deliver to her work today for Valentines' day.
