Hi friends! Today I'm sharing our weekly grocery haul. I went to Acme Market, which in my opinion is priced kind of high but has great meat and produce. I'm not always able to get everything I need at my main jawn (aka Aldi) so sometimes I go to Acme.
PRICE BREAK DOWN
I was really happy with the produce deal they had going on, so if you have an Acme near you, go check it out!
I love when I have long receipts, it makes me feel accomplished! What about you?

I didn't get a chance to share my meal plan. If you're interested in seeing a meal planning video from me, please let me know and I will fim them for you.
Hi Friends! We all like to save money, but saving money on food can be tricky. Food shopping takes up a large portion of our budget, so I'm always trying to find good, affordable food. I decided to start shopping at Save-A-Lot again and they have blown me away ! Save-a-lot gives a ton of brand name food options as well as, some great store brands options as well!
Here are my favorite Save -A- Lot Picks
1. Meats- I'm so picky when it comes to good meat, and Save-A-Lot offers great meat options, at an affordable price. I've heard people say they think the meat is "cheap" and I promise you, I'd never eat cheap meat. It's good and it's more affordable than big grocery stores.
2. Store Brand Mac 'n Cheese- I don't know what makes it taste so delicious, but it's the best boxed mac, I've ever had. I won't buy any other brand because this stuff is good. At $0.39 it's totally worth the price
3. Store Brand Chips- The J. Higgs Extreme Nacho Chips- YASS! They tasted better to me then the name brand. All of these chips are good and affordable. If you go to Save-A-Lot pick up a bag and let me know what you think.
4. Cereal- Apple Bobbers- These are an amazing price and taste great. The size of the box makes these breakfast cereals totally worth the price.

Some of the prices at my store may vary from yours, the best way to see what your store has is to head into your local Save-A-Lot. Find a store near you
Hi Friends! Today I'm sharing what I bought from Aldi's and the Dollar Tree for this weeks grocery haul. We had a huge snow storm come in, so I had to pick up what was left after the shelves were raided. We are a family of 4, so watch and see what a family of 4 eats throughout the week.
Hi Friends!! I have partnered up with Save-A-Lot to see how far $50 can go at my local store! In this video I'm sharing a grocery haul, check it out here Someone in the comments said this:
I want to share my opinion on this and let you know what I choose to do for myself and my family! I by no means eat healthy, but I don't eat terribly either! We eat 3 balanced meals a day and do snack on chips, popcorn, ice cream BUT we also snack on carrots, celery, apples, and nuts. I choose to eat things in moderation, if I want it I eat it if I don't I don't! What is "real" food?? If you mean food with 1 ingredient straight from the earth, you can find it at Save-A-Lot. The produce section is small, but it's there! Grains, eggs, cheeses, fruits, veggies all of that is available at Save-A-lot. I don't think its sad at all that I feed my family prepared food! This because that's not all that we eat! I understand this viewers point, that too much "packaged" food can be bad. We don't eat frozen pancakes for breakfast, cheese steak for lunch, Frozen Lasagna for dinner. That's just not what I choose I do! We choose to eat packaged food in moderation. I personally at this moment have desire to eat organic! It's not something that I believe enough in, to spend the extra money. If that's something you're passionate about, you should do it!
My thoughts on Save-a-lot....
Save-A-Lot had a large selection of store brand and name brand food items. I was surprised by that, since I go to Aldi's often and they don't have nearly the same amount there. Save A Lot had a large selection of "exotic" fruits and veggies (ginger is an example of my "exotic" reference) Be prepared for no thrills and frills. The store I went to was nice and clean, but it didn't have the nicely stocked shelves of a more expensive grocery store. Save A Lot is a place where you either bring your own bag or pay .11cents for a heavy duty plastic bag. For me this isn't a big deal, but when you're buying hundreds of dollars worth of groceries you may not want to have to bag it yourself! SAVE A LOT ACCEPTS COUPONS!!!
Here’s what I recommend from SAVE A LOT
milk
meats
cereal
brown rice (some stores have it)
jasmine rice
sugar
cheese
salsa
crackers
produce: bananas, avocados (always a great deal), pineapples, sometimes other fruits (but watch the quality closely), cauliflower, broccoli, baby carrots, peppers, onions, sometimes cucumbers, sweet potatoes, organic apples, organic bananas, asparagus in season, pea pods, zucchini, potatoes, and more.
One of my favorite places on earth is the Dollar Tree, especially during Christmas! Seeing all the sparkly ornaments and decor makes my little heart so happy! In this video we walk and talk, looking at all the Christmas items on my "wish-list". sidenote: I can not bring my self to purchase anything this early, but I know I need to get the items I want now, or I will be SOL I also share what food items I brought for this weeks grocery haul. I wanted to try out some of their snacks and treats for the kids and I. The packages seem to be a little smaller then I would like, but so far, so good.
