Grocery Haul September 14, 2018

On Friday we did the bulk of our grocery shopping for the month. Our first stop was at Ingle's where we spent $22.25. We bought some meat markdowns ($1.99 & $2.49) and the following items were from the Crash & Burn section.  Green Chilis 50¢ each. These had been on my grocery list. How lucky we were to find them at this discounted price. 

 Spaghetti & Bruschetta Sauce $1.00 each. The spaghetti sauce was also on my grocery list, so I was tickled to find it on markdown for $1.00 per jar. 

Buns 38¢ each on markdown, another item on the grocery list. 

Our Next stop was at Kroger where we spent $136.85. 
I always check the Crash & Burn section first since those items can be rare. We hit the jackpot this time.

Corn on the cob on markdown for $1.49. Oscar Mayer beef hot dogs on sale, but we were charged the non-sale price, so I will have to take care of that. 

Some more meat and yogurt markdowns. Some hard salami for sandwiches.  Two jars of Kroger preserves one cherry and one strawberry. 
This summer we found Smucker's cherry preserves on sale, so we bought and tried and liked them. 
The Kroger brand was on sale for $1.49 this week, so we bought it to try. It is much less expensive than the Smucker's brand. 

Two Asian salads on markdown for $1.49 and 1 baby spinach on markdown down $2.39. Also some cheddar and American cheese. 

Cream Cheese $1.00. Cheese breadsticks and pumpernickel bread on markdown for $1.29 each. 

Chorizo for $1.00 per package. Some regions 

were able to get coupons for this, but our area didn't, but this was a great price, so I stocked up. 

More meat markdowns. 

Mandarin Oranges 89¢ each Kroger tomatoes with jalapenos 49¢ each Kroger dark kidney beans 49¢ each

 

A box of salt for 29¢.

Campbell's Soups $1.00 each. I like to cook with the Beefy Mushroom and I always buy it when it's priced at $1.00 per can never paying the $1.65 and over that it normally cost. 

What was funny was that although this was on sale for $1.00, there were several of them in the crash & burn section for 49¢ each, which I also picked up. 

Two packages of sugar for $1.89 and spices were on sale for $1.00 a bottle except for the dill, which was $4.00. I was out of all of these spices.  

Other items we bought, but did not picture include: 2 loaves bread 85¢ each 2 boxes Kellogg's cereal 99¢ each 1 package sweet onions $2.99 Almond milk $2.79 I'm sure I've forgotten some things but this was the bulk of our shopping. We added a total of 55 cans of food to our pantry this weekend. Many of them came from the Crash & Burn section. 
I've already put everything away neat and tidy into the pantry and freezer, so we are good to go for  while again. :)
