Our Smiths (Kroger) Shopping Trip – Saved Nearly 60%!!

We ran to Smiths tonight (after FREE Hot Dog on a Stick and using our FREE $10 off $10 purchase at JCPenney – literally walked out of the mall without spending a penny!) to grab just a few things the last night of the sale.

Here’s a picture of what we bought:

Here’s the breakdown!
