Shop, Trade, Save: Week of July 11

It was my turn to do the grocery shopping this week, so, of course, I put it off until we really needed food in our house. I actually enjoy grocery shopping, but my local supermarket is crazy busy on the weekends when I go, so it’s usually a pretty stressful experience.

On Monday morning, I went to the grocery store and it was actually quite a pleasant experience. The store was quiet and everything was well-stocked. Perhaps Monday mornings will soon become my day to shop!

I didn’t need hand-soap, but my favorite brand was on sale 2 for $2! Hand-soap doesn’t go bad and I know we’ll use it, so I stocked up while they were on sale.

They were $0.50 cheaper a bottle!
