oh how i love Safeway!

Made my shopping list last night as I viewed the ad (which i did indeed post yesterday).  I printed out ONE coupon, brought my grocery cash envelope, a snack for the little girl and went to it!

I maximized the sales, scoured the 50% off sections and stuck to my list.  If it wasn't on my list I had to be certain I had a use for it.  Being naturally thrifty I am not one to make impulse buys anyway...  I did let me little girl pick a fun chocolate-cherry yogurt from the 50% off bin, which she ate so it is not in the pic!

Grand total before club-card, before my one coupon is $113.75.

That is probably a fair price, I got a LOT of food!  That bag of organic kale is HUGE and I got a lot of almond milk, pantry staples and that HUGE box of 'designer' wine which equals 4 total bottles!!  (wow- can't wait to give that a try!!!)

After my single coupon, my Club Card AND my ibotta rebates (todays rebates are $1.50, don't belong to ibotta? sign for this free service here and use my referral code: xaofggi) my grand total is $59.11.  Thats a huge savings!!!

I would say that is pretty dang good since I purchased fairly healthy food, didn't spend time clipping coupons and focused on food that we will actually be eating (no purchases 'just because its a bargain'= no food waste).
