PUBLIX 2/3/11, SPENT $9.64, SAVED 83%

I ran back into Publix today to get some Tofu. Yes, I said Tofu, two of them to be exact! I bought these for my daughter and I plan on dousing it with soy sauce to give it some flavor. She loves it! I, on the other hand, have no desire to eat any! The only place I have had Tofu and liked it was at Mama Fu's in Mandarin. Believe me...if I knew it was in there I would have pushed it all to the side. But when you cook it with other things it takes on that flavor. This is where the soy sauce comes in. I'll let you know how it went! This is what I bought:

2 Extra Firm Tofu
4 Flintstone Gummie Vitamins (these sell for $6.99 each, use MQ and $5/2 PQ
2 Pace Salsa
2 U Kotex Tampons
2 English Muffins

I will head back to the store before the end of the sale to get my lunchmeat and produce and stock up on Ro-Tel!

PUBLIX 2/1/11, SPENT $8.35, SAVED 93%

Today's shopping trip begins the month of February and I have spent $8.35 so far! Coffee, glad trash bags, and spaghetti sauce were my favorites this week. I had a raincheck for the Ragu and I did the Buy Theirs, Get Ours Free with it. I asked the manager and they said I could get as many as I wanted...so I did! Twelve bottles in all! This is what I got:

4 Glad Trash Bags
4 Glad Freezer Bags
Mueller Jumbo Shells
4 8 O'Clock Coffee (also got raincheck)
2 Doritos
Fresh Asparagus
Strawberries
6 Ragu
6 Publix Sauce
2 Dove Deodorant
7 8-Pk. Juicy Juice
1 Capri Sun (given as substitution for Juicy Juice)

My stash of trash bags now is going to take me through the rest of the year. Since my family uses a lot of trash bags, I am excited that I don't have to buy them. Holy Moley, I also have a great stash of spaghetti sauce when I feel like I don't want to cook. Add some sausage, a can of diced tomatoes (stocked on those also!) and spices, and I am good to go!

MONTHLY TOTAL FOR JANUARY

I made the decision to track my grocery and drugstore spending. I totalled my receipts for January and my total was $144.79. That is $36.20 per week! I was pleased with that dollar amount considering I used to spend $144.79 in one week before coupons and not have nearly all the stuff I have now!

My drugstore OOP for the month of January was $9.44 and my shelves are full with stuff!

What about you? How are you doing with your grocery spending? Leave a comment and let us know.
