I went to the store this morning and got a month of groceries, $50.00 gas card for husband and $20 cash for him and my bill was $240. I think we will have to go back and get sugar, tea, and waffles (he won't eat anything else, I've tried) and maybe oil. i can't believe i did it and without coupons. I go to walmart and don't buy name brands. All the meat i go was on clearance. they had 3lb. hamburger meat bullets on sale for 5.24 and i got a 5lb. bullet for 4.89, so i picked up three and i am freezing them tonight. i also got my husbands favorite steak on clearance. I did take advice from another thread and i didn't buy paper towels, cookies, or any other prepackaged items. We are a big freezer meal family and i didn't buy any of those. cutting them out. Anyways, sorry for the rambling, i am just excited!!!

Great job! Doesn't a really big savings get kind of addictive and make you want to try again next time?
