No money + tons of shopping at Kroger

Well that title said it all. Crappy pay check came in yesterday. Next check will be $20.00 higher. Yeah looking forward to that. (day after thanksgiving) Made my first call to unemployement that check is only about $80.00. Hubby was messing with the computer and now we can't see the bank statement so we can't even tell if the direct deposit worked. Luckily he received a card and $100 dollars + GC for Outback. for coaching this week at the banquet. Big suprise. Another suprise was a tenant who is 4 months behind. Sent 120.00 dollars. OK not enough but I'll take it. Somethings better than nothing. 2 other tenants are mucho bucks behind also, yet those funds are not here this week. Rite aid sent me $2.00 rebate and Pinecone $3. survey money. Should have $30 from walgreens but I messed up and forgot to claim so now they are sending a snail mail check (argh)

Kroger deals this week are crazy. I managed to do the buy 10 and get $5.00 back instantly 8 times so far and I think I'm going back again today. LOL I'm not going to list it all but having that extra $40 dollars went pretty far. Funny I ran out of coupons oh after the second trip but got a few more yesterday so I'm really thinking I'm going again. Each time my savings was 47-55% off. AWESOME.

My 4 Kids will not need these items for quite some time : (wait they are all teenagers.....)

  • Cereal
  • Powerade
  • vitamin water
  • dove ice cream
  • fritos
  • oatmeal (6 canisters so far)
  • hot chocolate
  • granola bars
  • stouffers panni's
  • pizza rolls (cheese for my vegetarians)

I also got tons of these items that were "managers specials"

  • organic smoothies

  • bagged salad
  • veggie shreds
  • apples
