is like a looking for a needle in a haystack but I guess no-one said the $20 challenge would be easy.
Needed to grocery shop today, the pantry was looking very bare and I saw a special on chicken - 91c/lb, so off DD and I went all ready to stock up...
Sold out and no offer to keep some for us when they get their next delivery.
Went to our regular store - found the same price and went crazy. Bought $20 worth and saved about $5.
Found a few other discounted items and ended up with a total saving of $6.
Old Balance: $102.52
Add: $6.00
New Balance: $108.52
Spent a total of $101 on our necessities: bread, milk, juice, marge, sugar, oil etc which should last about 10 days BUT...
I forgot to buy washing detergent, fabric softener, cheese, lasagna so back to the store tomorrow. Think I was too busy focusing on the specials and savings and not concentrating on the list.
Oh well...
Hunting for specials...
