I am sooo excited I had to share!

So the closest Aldi's is an hour away, so DH and I decided we would go once a month! We'll we went this weekend. I had the cart FULL OVERFLOWING!!!!

I will have to go to super walmart to get a few things lettuce, cumin and choc chips (aldis was out), but other than that I will have meals for the month! I even got almost everything for my holiday baking! We spent $177.59!!!!!!!

I planned out meals for the month and made a list and stuck to it! Plus just the fact that I shopped at Aldis made a HUGE difference! I plan "leftover" nights into my month also!

Also with Thanksgiving we go to my parents and I usually just bring a side dish and a couple pies, but end up leaving with leftovers for the rest of the weekend so that helped.

That is impressive. Holiday baking can be so expensive, so deals are awesome!

They have these little bags of chopped dates - recipe on the back of the box is for oatmeal date cookies. They make a ton of cookies and they are SOOOO good!
