All this for $16.47 at Food Giant :)

Ok. So this is a little late getting posted. But, please allow me to explain myself......I have started part time college courses recently. And on top of that new addition to my schedule, I am also a stay at home mom of a 2 year old and a 7 year old. My husband works out of town a lot, so I have all of the normal household duties to tend to by myself. We have football practice 4 nights a week, and other activities on Saturdays. I recently took over as "team mom" for the football team, and must continue to do my "full time couponing" and part time blogging, in an attempt to keep budget in order. So....I am a little behind in my schedule this week. In an attempt to get back on track I am gonna post what I got, and do what I can to get caught back up. Plus, it makes me feel a little better to reflect on my great savings this past week :)
