Grocery Shopping, 7/5/10

We had a 4th of July picnic to go to and we had to bring something, so I brought the watermelon and two cases of pop. I also found more .99 a pound meat and stocked up for my August freezer cooking days. (I am loving the meat sales!)

Dominick's:

7 lbs. turkey burger = 6.93

6 cartons pop = 11.98

1 package diapers = 6.99

bananas = .87

watermelon = 2.98

strawberries = 2.88
Total = 34.59

CVS: (no picture)
2 Mega packs diapers = 13.98 (I used up 7 ECBs that were expiring)

Tony's:

3 packs chips = 1.00

1 loaf bread = 1.50

6 sub sandwich rolls = 3.79

1 lb. provolone cheese = 3.10

3/4 lb. Canadian bacon = 2.47

1 lb. lunch meat = 4.00

1 gallon milk = 2.50

broccoli = .95

5 kiwi = 1.00

1 bag spinach = 2.50

5 pears = 2.35

6 ears corn = 1.00

1 bunch lettuce = .95

4 nectarines = 1.29

pineapple = 1.49

4 peaches = 2.21

1 bag carrots = .99

cantaloupe = .99

2 bags grapes = 5.36

Total = 45.11

Total for the week = 93.68

Total for the year = 2375.10 (95.00/week)

We have not been using our cloth diapers because our downstairs neighbor hogs the washing machine and we have to pay for each load and because we thought it was easier with two in diapers to just use disposable, especially when I can snag good sales. But each week when I look at our paper diaper expenditure, ($20.97, or 22% of our grocery expense this week), I wonder if we shouldn't go back to cloth, especially since we already have them as I used them exclusively with my son. It may be time to give cloth a try again.
