Grocery Deals

Today I did my grocery shopping for 2 weeks.  Of course I will need to go back for milk and maybe a veggie for two.  This picture is just a few things I got at ALDI.  I was never a big fan of ALDI but a few months ago I visited and found great deals on fruit and veggies.  I will say I am very pleased with the freshness and quality of their items.  This is what I got there today for under $38:

Cheese 1.99
carrots .99
tomatoes 1.19
water 2.29
3.5 lbs banana 1.50
3 lb bag of apples 1.99
milk 2.19
coffee creamer 1.49
apple juice 1.49
cinn rolls 1.49
OJ 1.89
bag of 9 onions .99
Danimals smoothie .59
32 pack fruit snacks 3.49
strawberries 1.99
Bell peppers 1.99
12 pk pop tart 2.69

My next stop down the road about a mile was The Fresh Market.  They had their Sirloin steaks for 50% off and fresh Mahi Mahi for 9.99 lb.  I also found some green beans at 1.49 lb and organic salad at 2.50.  With the steaks I was able to make up 4 kabobs and save 2 nice cuts for grilling out steaks next week, all for $10.99.    I just love shopping there, it smells like fall and is SO clean but pricey so I save that trip for special treats and deals when I see them.

My last stop was Sweetbay which was about 2 miles from The Fresh Market.  They had their ground beef and chicken on sale.  I bought a cart full of stuff but here is the main deals I found:

With the chicken I will def take the skin OFF prior to cooking!  I have a few new recipes I am making up soon so I will post them when I do!

Chicken was .99 lb

Lean Beef was 1.99 lb (I got 3+ lbs)

I will be able to make 4 meals with the chicken (the pieces are HUGE) and 2.5 meals with the ground beef.
