$129.08 Grocery Bill...

But my debit card only had to put out $23.85 :)

If you are as bad at math as I am...that's 82% savings.

It's funny how savings of 60% or less seem not worth my time and effort anymore.

Today, I went to Fry's (which seems to be my store of choice now) and bought 30 items, as per the sale going on right now (buy 10 participating items and save $5 at the register -- limit of 3 transactions at the register; thus the 30 items)

(x4) 48 oz. Breyers Ice Cream -- $.50 (on sale for $1.50)
(x5) 12 oz. Nestle Choc. Chips -- $.50 (on sale for $1.50)
(x4) 5 lb. C&H Sugar -- $.50 (on sale for $1.50)
(x3) 32 oz. Shout -- $1 (on sale for $2)
(x4) 12.5 oz. Pledge -- $1 (on sale for $2.50)
(x6) 28 oz. Hunts Tomatoes -- $.50 (on sale for $1) (and these were huge cans!)
(x3) 3-4 ct. Orville Reddinbocher Popcorn -- $.50 (0n sale for $1.50)
(x1) 3 pk. Dial Soap -- $.10 (on sale for $1)

I also bought a dozen large eggs at $.97 and 4 packs of Philly Cream Cheese (on sale at 4 for $5) but used an Albertson's coupon that gave me B1G2F. Each box of cream cheese ended up being $.40 each I think (again, my math is not the best and unfortunately those calculations weren't neatly printed on the bottom of my receipt.)
