[Flylady post is coming, just shopped today because I had to drop the kids off to swim with their grandparents and was trying to be a good steward of our gasoline!]
Went to Dillons, realized I forgot some coupons, but that's ok. I got it all done today! (Though the deals are pretty good right now. I may go back again this weekend.) Here's the first shopping stop of the day:

TODAY'S TOTAL: $36.44 plus tax. I hope this will last until close to next Thursday though I will be shopping CVS/Wags this weekend on gift cards.
(Below is a Target trip I took on Monday. Somehow, it only came to just over $5. I'm still not sure how that happened. ALSO, there are adorable make believe/play clothes in the dollar spot right now. I feel like I've already mentioned that. I'm just really excited. Usually those are pricey items. I used our $5 gift card from dog food a couple weeks ago to get the kids $5 new imaginative play toys!!) The b1g1 coupon for Kellogs really did take off 4.29 even though the free cereal did not cost that much but I'm pretty sure this should have cost me $6.50. Still a great deal!!!
Stacked Target qs w/manuf qs and used overage from qs to help cover other costs. Target seems pretty laid back about that while other stores are more finicky. I guess this is where the "ymmv" expression comes in.
Please share your deals/link your blog! I love seeing what other people find. This whole thing still AMAZES me! :)
July Totals:
$103.30 (includes dog food trip not shown. Other costs have come up with car issues and remodeling and are not included. Next month I will work even harder to show every penny.)
