It has been a very busy week in the Thrifty Couple household! Between finishing Christmas shopping, birthday parties and Christmas parties I am just now getting to tell you about deals to find at the grocery stores this week. I wanted to be able to also tell you about our shopping trips too! We went grocery shopping today and grabbed some awesome deals!
As we glanced at the sales this week, we decided that it was best to go to Walmart and price match as there were items from a few different stores, so we just thought that we would stay at one store and get it all at Walmart. When we got there, we found some great deals, but 2 of the items that we really wanted and intended to stock up on were not even offered at our Walmart, so we did stop by Macey’s on the way home and I ran in real quick to pick up those items! So, even though we ended up having to go to 2 stores, it was well worth it!
Here is our Walmart trip:
- 2 Yo Baby 3-in-1 yogurt meals – $1 each = $2. Then used 2 $1/1 printable (details HERE = final is FREE
