I share this with the hope that I can help others if they are looking for inspiration. These are AZ deals. I'm trying to get better at cooking, not only for the financial benefits, but for the health benefits. Let's face it, Taco Bell just doesn't cut it. So here's what I'm doing this upcoming week...
My Shopping List (most deals run Wednesday to Wednesday so I like to shop Monday or Tuesday's). Most of this info should be right, but you can check out Pinchingyourpennies.com for more accurate info. I'm still getting used to this coupons/saving money lingo. I'm going to start using coupons, but since I'm new to this, I don't have many collected. I hope you enjoy! Darby

wow, lucky laura to be visiting you this week.
K, so what night can I come over??? JK. You are so domestic! What a good little wife you are. Oh, I just got caught up on your blog and Ben and I are totally excited to try out the culinary school restaurant. What a good idea.
I just roasted my first chicken! I have been forced into domesticity by the lack of restaurants here in Rexburg...
Ah, Bashas!! Store of my heart. I miss it! No grocery store smells as good as a Bashas. (yes, I think grocery stores have individual smells) :)
