Grocery Shopping, 2/27/10

Some women go through nesting before their baby is born. I am not experiencing nesting in the form of cleaning, but rather in the form of stockpiling diapers and wipes. I think something about the idea of having two little ones in diapers is freaking me out. I have a huge stockpile now both for my 16 month old daughter and the baby soon to come. It is great to have such a stockpile, but it is not helping my grocery bill’s bottom line (excuse the pun!)

CVS:

8 pkgs. wipes = 10.00 (I only have a picture of 4 of them)
(I had a $10 ECB about to expire, and I took advantage of the great wipes deal last week--$2.50 per package, so I got these super cheap.)

Babies R Us:

2 large cases of diapers = 71.25
1 large box of wipes = 12.72
Total = 83.97 (I also received a $15 Babies R Us gift card)

Meijer:

2.83 lbs. bananas = 1.25
1 pkg. taco seasoning = .49
2.11 lbs. grapes = 2.49
2 pkgs. cream cheese =3.18
1 bunch broccoli = 1.79
2 V-8 Splash = 3.98
1 jar salsa = 2.19
4 pkgs. chicken breasts = 15.84
2 boxes pasta = 1.98
1.91 lbs. pears = 2.25
1.81 lbs. apples = 2.33
1 jar salad dressing =1.49
1 – 4 lb. bag oranges = 2.99
2 pkgs. chunk cheese = 5.98
2 boxes cereal = 6.98
1 bag parmesan cheese = 2.00

Total = 57.21

Total for the week = 161.18
Total for February = 347.24
Total for the year = 664.55 (83.06/week average)
