I needed to go grocery shopping yesterday not only because we needed a couple of things but because it was Senior Discount Day (6% off). This is what I purchased at Top’s:
4 jars of Ragu Spaghetti Sauce – $ .75 each after Q’s = $ 3.00
4 Kummelweck rolls – $ .75 each = $ 3.00
1 Bag of Ruffles – $ 1.99 after Q
1/2 lb of Virginia Baked Ham – $ 3.36
1/2 lb. of Charlie The Butcher Roast Beef – $ 6.59- comes with free au jus
5 pkgs. of Jimmy Dean Bacon – $ 17.98 after B2G3F
4 pkgs. of Taco Seasoning – Free after Q’s
1 Celery – $ .88 after Q
24 ct. Large Eggs – $ 1.99
1 Land of Lakes Cream Cheese – $ .99 after Q
1 Box of Microwave Popcorn – $ 2.99
Total was $ 39.93 after 6% discount.
This is the cheapest spaghetti sauce that I have seen in a long time. When I don’t have time to make homemade for West, it will come in handy.
The rolls were for beef on a weck sandwiches for dinner last night. And yes, I ate a roll- the 2nd one that I have eaten in 8 months. This is my very favorite sandwich and since my blood work numbers were so beautiful yesterday, I celebrated. But it will probably be another 4 – 5 months before I eat any bread again.
The chips and celery were purchased for Thanksgiving. Hubby wanted the cold cuts for his lunches. We use a lot of bacon for Sunday family breakfasts. Eggs were a great price and I was down to 2 dozen. I use a lot of cream cheese. Hubby wanted the popcorn for snacks.
I have a busy day so I need to hard boil a dozen eggs for my breakfasts. Then I will go out to the Post Office to make a return and to Kohl’s to use up some Kohl’s cash. We have a snowstorm coming tomorrow so I want to get these things done.
Did you get any good deals this past week?

That was a fantastic price on sauce. I also keep it on hand for nights when I just can't pull together the real thing.
My big win at the store was finding 1 lb packages of 97% lean ground beef marked down to $.25 this weekend. I bought four, and pointed it out to another shopper, who was looking for less expensive meat. I wanted to clear the shelves, but shared instead. 🙂
Hi HP,
I don't know that I would have been so generous with that $.25 a lb. ground beef. I would like to think I would have. But may God Bless you for sharing.
Honestly, I was so tempted! I live in a neighborhood where most people have plenty of money, but there are also elderly people on a tight budget, so I do try to be a friendly but frugal shopper. This one was really hard for me, though. 😉
You did great sharing like that.
I love how you combine coupons with sales it really helps.
Hi Kim,
Thanks. I just wish that there were more food coupons like there used to be.
Yes, but I cannot think of what they were. Hey, that was last week…lol.
Hi PP,
You gave me a good chuckle!
