Aldi Trip 7/11

Well, we got back into town last night, and of course we were out of food.  I tried to make a list, but was a bit frazzled with all of the unpacking to be done, so I did my best (ei. "lunch stuff" made it on my list), and then I went to Aldi.  I quite honestly just walked up and down the frozen food aisle just tossing things into my cart.  I planned to get more produce, but it wasn't looking so hot (they appeared to be unloading a new truck full, but I wasn't waiting).  I really thought that I was going to end up spending a lot more than I actually did, but was surprised when my total only came to $46.xx.

Here's what I got:


Even though it wasn't my most strategically planned smart shopping trip (besides, my coupons were still in the van....), I don't think I did so bad.  I didn't buy any meat because we still had quite a bit in the freezer, as well as some complete meals in the freezer, so I  didn't need to do much meal planning either.

I also didn't have my grocery ads from the week because we had them hold the paper.  They should be delivering the two Sunday's that I missed along with my Wednesday paper, so I don't even know what is on sale this week, and quite honestly I have too much unpacking to do that I don't even want to know.  It might make me decide I need to run to three more stores tomorrow. ;)

So on Wednesday I will have the new ads, and I will let you know what is on sale then.

Where did you shop this week?  Feel free to tell me about all the great sales I've missed out on!

You're not missing out on much, it's a slow week (at least at my favorite stores, CVS and Wags). You made a great choice to go to Aldi's!

I love Aldi! It's been my favorite since it opened. I hope I can find something to buy at CVS because I have some ECBs I need to use before they expire!

I really wish we had an Aldi's in town. The one we have is about 20 miles away and I'm not sure the savings is worth it with the price of gas these days.

I only managed to shop at Save a Lot and Wal-Mart this week. It was a bad saving week ;(
