Total Savings 82%

I’m happy paying $19.49 for a good summer’s supply of bbq sauce (we grill a LOT), a month supply of juice, a 2 months’ supply of biscuits, plus some cheese, cooking crèmes and hot sauce. Also, we were headed to the lake later in the day with family, so I was able to pick up the hamburgers, hotdogs, buns, carrots, lettuce and salad for that trip. And I’ll have the kool-aid and suave to donate. The laffy taffy will probably go in Easter baskets or be donated as well.

Not too shabby!

Sorry...long time without posts

I guess it's just the time of year where life gets busy! Sorry I haven't been around. I'm hoping to get more posts going again!
