Wednesday Savings Round-Up – Crazy Lady in the Grocery Store Edition

Ever been the crazy lady in the grocery store? You know, the one who absentmindly mutters to herself things like “I need to go back to the rice aisle.” or “Do I already have enough chicken at home?” as she shops by herself? Well, I was that lady the other day. Standing in the produce section (with the poor produce guy working nearby) I grabbed some broccoli for a soup that I’m making this week. Shocked at the prices I said “Broccoli is $2.50 a bunch? What in the world?” Only, instead of it being in my head I actually said it outloud. Oops.

But really. Can you believe I paid $5.00 for 2 bunches of broccoli?! Ay yi yi.

Yay for Coupons!

This Sunday will be a great week for coupons. 3 inserts (Smartsource, Redplum and Proctor & Gamble) will be in papers. For a preview of the coupons check here.
