Weekly $20 Grocery Challenge - Albertsons & Vons

 This week was an AMAZING sale at Albertsons!  I can't believe how good it was, so I definitely stocked up on the boxed potatoes and Hamburger Helpers.  There were also a few other good grabs.  I did three separate transactions at Albertsons and one at Vons.

- (2) $1/1 Maxwell House or Yuban coffee in Albertsons September booklet found in store at checkout
= $13.98


My total this week came to $20.81!  I went over by .81 but being that I purchase everything pictured for $20.81, I would definitely say it was worth it.  The best deals this week were honestly at Albertsons.  We used our stock of coffee, so that's the one thing I needed to stock up on, otherwise I would have left it out of my challenge this week, so my total would have been under $7.  Can you imagine?!  LOL. 

I must apologize for not having posted the last two weeks worth of my Weekly Grocery Challenge.  I did make a few purchases and last weeks was way under budget totaling less than $10 at Smith's which I did the Kellogg's Eggo and Milk deal again.  But I had family matters to attend to.

We had a death in the family and it was a difficult time to handle, in addition to my normal home life, work and school. There was also a bachelorette party that same week.  So I've been working an extra hour of overtime almost each day just so my family can have a little extra in our savings account.  I will be even busier now that soccer practice is starting for my son, so I will do my best to post grocery deals by Friday, and my Weekly $20 Grocery Challenge by Sundays. 

Thank you so very much for your support.
