Grocery Shopping Total for this Past Week 2/2/19!

My intent was to not go grocery shopping until this weekend but when we saw what was headed our way in the weather department, we went last Sunday afternoon.  The Polar Vortex, as they are calling it, hit us with a punch and stayed just about the whole week.  So glad we went ahead and bought groceries because who wants to shop when it's -45 degrees below zero windchill.   We did end up watching both grandchildren the whole week while their parents worked!  Good thing we had some good food!

Aldi's


We had to go back and stock back up today (kids can eat).  It amazed me the differences in the prices for almond milk between the two stores.  I knew it was high at Save a lot but I also knew we needed for this past week so I just bought it.
