Great job Christy! I haven't stocked up on anything yet this week. Oh, I take that back, I did buy 2 jars of pizza sauce. We're waiting on checks in the mail.  Last week, I did buy a case of canned green beans, 2 boxes of brown rice, 6 cans of fruit cocktail and something else but I can't remember what it was. |

Our IGA is still rocking in the sales department, so I loaded up today, as much as my van could hold and still have room for the kids.
2 cases of green beans
2 cases of corn
2 cases of canned Pinto beans
40 lbs of flour
40 lbs of cornmeal mix
24 boxes of Jiffy cornmeal muffins (they were cheap - 4/$1)
6 cans of pink salmon (that's all they had left)
a case of Treet Lite
a case of pineapple
I also got around 30 lbs of chicken breasts, but it probably will be eaten long before it's needed for preps. It was just 68 cents a pound. I'm thinking of going back Sunday and getting some to can. They're supposed to get another shipment on Sunday. I bought all they had today.
I am seriously running out of space! I have 6 cases of veggies in my tiny kitchen. There was no other place to put them!

2 cases of chili beans
2 cases of dark red kidney beans (had WAY more potassium than the light red kidneys at the same price)
Rice (only 4 lbs but grown in USA)
2 bags of Great Northerns
Graham Flour
2 gallons of canola oil
Curry powder (accidentally ended up with WAY more than I thought I had)
Still not done for this week yet though....
